FAQs

What is tile adhesive, and why is it important in tiling projects?

Tile adhesive is a specially formulated bonding agent used to securely fix tiles to floors, walls, or other surfaces. It ensures that tiles stay firmly in place, providing durability and preventing movement or cracking over time. Using the correct tile adhesive is essential for the success and longevity of any tiling installation, especially in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas.

What types of tile adhesives are available at CTM?

CTM offers a wide range of tile adhesives designed for different tile types, surfaces, and installation environments. These include:
Standard ceramic tile adhesive for walls and low-traffic floors. Porcelain and dense tile adhesives for heavy or low-porosity tiles. Flexible adhesives are ideal for floors that may experience slight movement or expansion. Waterproof adhesives specifically designed for bathrooms, showers, and outdoor areas exposed to moisture.

How do I choose the right tile adhesive for my project?

Choosing the right adhesive depends on several factors, including the tile material, size, installation surface, and the area’s exposure to moisture or temperature changes. For example, porcelain or large-format tiles require a stronger adhesive, while standard ceramic wall tiles work well with general-purpose adhesive. CTM’s tile experts can help you select the right adhesive for your specific project needs.

Can the same tile adhesive be used for both walls and floors?

Not always. Floor tiles typically require stronger adhesives that can handle the weight and pressure of foot traffic, while wall tiles need adhesives that prevent slippage during installation. Many modern adhesives are multi-purpose, but it’s always best to check product specifications or consult a CTM expert to ensure suitability for your application.

Why is flexible tile adhesive recommended for certain areas?

Flexible tile adhesive is designed to accommodate slight movement in surfaces, which can occur due to temperature changes, structural shifts, or underfloor heating systems. It helps prevent tiles from cracking or becoming loose over time, making it ideal for floors, exterior installations, or areas with vibration or thermal expansion.

How is tile adhesive different from traditional cement or mortar?

Tile adhesives offer superior bonding strength, faster setting times, and better flexibility compared to traditional sand and cement mixtures. Adhesives are also specifically engineered to work with modern tile materials like porcelain, glass, and large-format tiles, providing better long-term performance, especially in wet or high-traffic areas.
