Hi All

Just a question about tiling a new shower.

What is the best adhesive to use?

The floor is particle board with 40mm of screed on top so that I have the fall to the wastes ( 1 shower, 1 Floor waste) Waterproof membrane is on the particle board flooring hob etc plus I recoated it in the shower base over the screed and hob to be on the safe side.

So what adhesive should I use in the shower, I guess it has to be waterproofed for the floor tiles. and does it need to be flexiable?

Can anyone recommend a product they may of used?

or any hints about doing the job?

Thanks for any help you may be able to give
Cheers John

ASA make good stuff.

Damp proof 2 is their better product for waterproofing.

I use fiberglass sheets in the corners for the water proofing.

Conflex should do the trick for adhesive.

Magnetmart , Joe and Sons in Haberfield usually have a good range.

Their reps are rather helpful as well.

Good Luck
