1. Full Wet Bed
This method is where the porcelain tiles are placed
onto a levelled out bed of 6:1 / 4:1 sand & cement
mortar, prepared to a wet consistency. This mortar
should be placed over a prepared sub base of
compressed MOT Type 1 material, usually at 75mm-
10mm thickness. Use a bond bridge primer on the
underside of every flag before laying. This will
ensure superior bond to the wet bed. The bond
bridge can be made using liquid SBR & OPC
cement.
2. Traditional System
This method is similar to laying internal floor tiles
inside a property. The porcelain tiles are fixed to a
75-100mm concrete slab base using an external
grade tile adhesive. Again, use a bond bridge
primer underneath the tiles to ensure a superior
bond. For jointing there is an option of using a
narrow joint two-part epoxy resin that are on the
market, this will give you a quick clean finish. We
would highly recommend you seek advice from a
professional contractor regarding the installation &
finishing or porcelain tiles.
