Providing the perfect finish to an underfloor heating system is as important as the installation itself. Using the right adhesive not only finishes your project perfectly and improves the longevity, it also makes your workload so much easier.
Before you begin it's important to know the type of surface you'll be tiling onto and the material of the tiles you're using. If in doubt always contact your manufacturer or retailer who will be able to advise you.
All of our tile adhesives are of course the quality you'd expect from Underfloor Heating Express however, choosing the right one can be a minefield.
