Tile Adhesives and Grouts

Tile Adhesives and Grouts

UK Slate offer a range of wall and floor tile adhesive and grout from the brand Sovereign. They manufacture and develop high performance floor and wall tile adhesive, which is used for bonding and sealing tiles. Adhesive is firstly applied to fix tiles to wall or floor surfaces in areas that are subject to movement, internally and externally.

Wall and floor grout is then applied afterwards to fill in gaps and close tiles. Wall and floor grout is a strong and effective inbuilt anti-mould grout. The wall and floor grout is hard wearing and water resistant making it ideal for use in showers and on floors. Sovereigns tile adhesive and grout is available in a range of colours, therefore available for you to colour match your floor or wall tiles.

What Are Adhesives?

An adhesive is a substance used for sticking objects or materials together. Within the tiling industry, adhesives are used to adhere the tile to the relevant surface. What type of adhesive is required is dependent on the surface you’re tiling onto.

What is Grout?

Grout is a substance used for filling crevices, most commonly gaps between wall or floor tiles. There are two types of grout:

Sanded Grout – used for larger joints, sand is added to the mixture in order to improve bulk and prevent shrinkage.
Unsanded Grout – a cement-based grout made up of a mixture of cement, water and pigments. It is used to apply tile grout to narrow spaces of one eighth of an inch or less.

Types of Grout

This flexible joint filling compound is suitable for walls and floors with joints up to 15mm wide. It is especially suitable for kitchens, showers, toilets and bathrooms where inhibition of fungal growth is required.
This product is the simple, clean and fast way to grout wide joints in hard landscaping features such as domestic drives, patios, and paths. No mixing is required, simply pour on to the floor and brush into the joints. Once set the grout is permeable allowing paving to drain and can be used on natural stone, brick, block, concrete, clay pavers and flags. Due to the high resin content, it is also more flexible than cement based grouts meaning the pointing wont crack from slight movement and frost.
This specially formulated adhesive is used for the fixing of wall and floor tiles, both internally and externally. It is ideal for fixing direct to timber floors and other areas which are subject to slight movement. It brings many benefits as it is also suitable for use in conjunction with under floor heating, allowing the tiles to expand when heated without the adhesive cracking and the tiles coming lose. The rapid set formula also dries much quicker than other adhesives, allowing the area to be used soon after tiling.
This cement based, thin bed adhesive is suitable for constantly wet locations such as showers, due to its fully water and frost resistance. Ideal for tiling swimming pools, the adhesive forms a strong bond with concrete, render, blockwork and brickwork.
This levelling compound is used for preparing sound sub floors which are ready for the installation of new floor coverings. This product can cover both absorbent and non-absorbent surfaces, such as old adhesive residues, asphalt, terrazzo, steel, epoxy and polyester resins. Using floor levelling compound can be much cheaper than using a thick bed of adhesive in order to produce a level floor.
