sovereign adhesives

[Dumbo]

anyone use any of the sovereign adhesives or grouts? Mate of mine gets his damproofing gear off them so i asked him to get the rep to give me some prices. Wondered if it was any good or not? Dont they do tanking as well?

Only ever used their tubbed gear. Was ok as tubbed gear goes.

I used to use soveriegn tubbed and had no issues with it, sovereign make a lot of additives etc for building and they all do what they say on the tin

hi all the damproofing and timber treatment stuff is first class ,the sbr is good ,but hey didnt know they did add and grout ,if its like the rest of the stuff prob be very good

the tanking k 11 is very good

is that a paint on or a membrane TT?

I use the Gold Star tubbed for splashies - lovely to spread, it's brilliant white, sets quick so you can grout the same day and will fix to timber

I also use Porcelflex grey and white which is a bagged single part flexible rapid set - again excellent product.

Just used there mould resistant grouts recently and they're not bad either.but stay well away from their standard grouts

Thir Stone Sealer is tremendous

I wouldn't change my adhesive on cost alone as the other factors in that choice are too important.
I 'am aware of a bathroom co. 4 years ago who had an account for this brand of adhesive and I put the emphasis on had!
Try the samples but monitor their use.
I only mention this as I don't believe the problem was satisfactorily resolved for them.


Just seen Merles post and have to agree - I find their white grout very good ad their stone seal is first class.
To the extent that my mind did not relate these products with their adhesives!
