Troubleshooting

Tiles appear uneven after installation

This is often due to an uneven subfloor. Ensure proper substrate preparation and levelling before tiling. If already laid, check grout lines and adhesive coverage.

Underfloor heating not working effectively

Verify that the UFH system was installed according to specifications and that the correct substrate preparation, adhesive, and grout were used. Check the UFH system itself for faults.

Matt finish seems dulled or scratched

Avoid using abrasive cleaners or tools. Clean with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. Deep scratches may be permanent; consider professional advice for restoration.

Grout lines discolouring

Clean grout lines with a dedicated grout cleaner. Ensure grout was sealed properly after installation, and reapply sealant periodically if needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Installation:

  1. Substrate Preparation: Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, level, and sound. For underfloor heating, specific substrate preparation guidelines must be followed to accommodate thermal expansion and ensure even heat distribution.
  2. Adhesive & Grout: Use a flexible cement-based adhesive and grout suitable for porcelain tiles and compatible with underfloor heating systems if applicable.
  3. Laying Pattern: Choose between a classic staggered pattern or a modern herringbone layout using the 90 x 15 cm planks. Maintain appropriate grout joints as recommended by the adhesive manufacturer.
  4. Cutting: Use appropriate tools for cutting porcelain tiles, such as a wet saw with a diamond blade.

Compatibility:

  • Underfloor Heating: Compatible when installed correctly with the appropriate substrate, adhesive, and grout.
  • Environment: Suitable for indoor use in bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, and living areas.

Care & Maintenance:

  • Daily Cleaning: Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dust and debris. Clean with a damp mop and mild, non-abrasive detergent.
  • Stubborn Stains: For tougher stains, use a specialized porcelain tile cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scouring pads that could damage the matt finish.
  • Grout Maintenance: Clean grout lines with a grout cleaner and re-seal if necessary to maintain appearance and prevent staining.
