    Default Porcelain tiles, bathroom, adhesive, grout, floor….

    Afternoon,

    I’m just about to start tiling my bathroom and would greatly appreciate some advice on adhesive selection and grout selection.

    The tiles for the whole of the bathroom are porcelain 300mm x 300mm x 9mm.

    The walls are gyproc water-resistant plasterboard, covered in Bal WP1 waterproofing kit. The floor is 18mm MBP ply over 15mm T&G floor bards (with loose wire warm-up under floor heating)

    Could you please let me know the best type of adhesive for putting the tiles on the wall, the best adhesive for the floor tiles. And the best grout for each.

    Thanks

    Dan
