Fix-A-Floor Extra Strength Bonding Adhesive for Loose and Hollow Tiles, Wood, LVT & Laminate. Includes 2mm+ Customisable Patented Tip With Preservation cap (04)

Great product, did the job well

This is pretty much watery PVA glue. The methods in the videos look easy to use but in reality unless you have huge cavities underneath your tiles, this won't work. The videos don’t indicate which situations it doesn’t work in. They don’t tell you what to do if you have those plastic spacers. I felt misled by their easy video. A huge waste of money. I’ve returned it and I ended up grinding the grout and using an epoxy grout.

This product is great. I use this to inject the glue into loose parquet flooring. Works every time. Its strong, and flexible and holds really well. I would highly recommend it.

Having floor tiles that are not fully adhered to the subfloor results in loose grout and potentially broken tiles. So it is worth quite a lot to resolve the problem without having to remove tiles. The video shows a simple solution to drill some small holes through the grout and pumping in the adhesive which flows easily under the tile and pushes up through the next hole. It did not work that way for me. I identified all the (extensive) hollow areas by tapping. Drilling through the grout was fairly simple but in some places the grout seemed to go full depth of the tile (i. e. The bit did not ‘release’ before it hit the screed). I used a 3mm bit. The adhesive was a good consistency but on some holes it was easy to pump and took a lot of material and on some it refused to take any. Only once did it flow up through the adjacent hole. This I think was due to the grout being full depth and blocking the flow path. It is important to use sufficient weight on the tiles until the adhesive sets. The tubes only leaked at the back if I tried to force the material into holes - if it won’t flow easily move on to the next hole and drill more holes if you need to. On checking next day I found only 60% of the hollow areas were now solid. I needed to drill more holes and re-apply the adhesive. This resulted in about 85-90% solid, but I could not detect any tile flex. Having regrouted the area I am pleased with the result but I will need to see that it remains perfect for years. The material is expensive and I needed a lot of tubes, but I was not willing to risk using a generic PVA adhesive and having failures.

It works

Does a good job. I had a problem as the three nozzles were packed pushed inside each other. I removed the first one screwed it on cut the end and nothing came out, squeezed the trigger again and glue everywhere but not out of nozzle. After cleaning up me, the floor the fix it tube etc, trying the next nozzle with the same outcome , I eventually discovered the cap from the following nozzle was jammed tight inside and couldn't be dislodged. Once I sorted that out the actual tile job was a doddle. Great stuff, very runny but that is what makes it flow under the tiles. I actually had to lift the edge of the tiles as they but together with no grout to drill into. As a 68 year old lady I would recommend this stuff just watch for the nozzles or you might stick yourself to the tile as well as waste the glue.
