What is a Fix-A-Floor adhesive?
Our easy-to-use Fix-A-Floor repair adhesive is a strong wall and floor tile adhesive for re-bonding loose and hollow tiles as well as marble, stone and creaky wood floors without the need for removing or replacing them. You can fit the patented customisable tip that comes with the adhesive to any sized hole you’ll drill, allowing for complete coverage and minimal waste as it retains any unused adhesive.
How do you use Fix-A-Floor adhesive?
Using our Fix-A-Floor Adhesive is simple:
1. Drill your desired size holes in the grout around your tiles
2. Load the floor tile bonding adhesive tube into a caulk gun and inject into the holes
3. Use our all-in-one micro injector kit loaded with the adhesive to inject if you have hard to reach areas
4. Once filled, wipe away any excess floor tile adhesive and regrout where you have drilled
5. Place a weight on the tile and allow the Fix-A-Floor adhesive to set
The only tools you'll need will be a drill, a caulking gun, a small batch of matching grout and, of course, our amazingly strong Fix-A-Floor adhesive.

FAQs
Fix-A-Floor will solve loose and hollow tiles for many, many years to come and should last for the lifetime of your floor. Having been around for well over a decade, Fix-A-Floor is a perfect solution to use as an alternative to the costly and messy option of removing or replacing your existing tiles or flooring.
Fix-A-Floor typically takes between 12-24 hours to set but this can vary depending on several factors. The depth underneath the tile or loose floor you’re applying the adhesive will affect the time it takes to cure, as well as the temperature of the room – the colder the room generally means the longer it will take to set. It’s also important you place something weighted on the area you have applied the adhesive to ensure proper adhesion takes place between the tile and the substrate.
The Fix-A-Floor tile bonding adhesive is designed to work on a wide array of floor tile materials. It is suitable to be used on porcelain, marble, stone, ceramic, wood and even underfloor heated areas.
Yes! We designed our tile adhesive for floors to be utilised in high-moisture areas thanks to a specialised formula that has high resistance to water and moisture.
Our floor tile bonding adhesive is designed to be used without having to remove both the tiles and existing adhesive. Just drill and fill! However, if you do need to remove any existing adhesive or any extra that has leaked out while applying, either wipe away with a damp, non-abrasive cloth or if it has cured, use our adhesive and residue remover.
The best way to apply the adhesive is to load the tube into a caulking gun and apply to your drilled holes in the grout lines. Slowly squeeze the caulk gun trigger and stop when the adhesive leaks out or overflows from surrounding holes. For more guidance, talk to our team.
To remove any adhesive, we have a specially designed adhesive and residue remover that can be applied onto dried adhesive and then wiped away using a wet sponge or cloth.
Our specialist design allows the adhesive to be used over heated floors. The type of underfloor heating you have will determine the curing period of the floor tile adhesive, so ensure you have waited the appropriate amount of time to turn your floor heating back on. We have more details about using the floor tile bonding adhesive on underfloor heating.
If your tiles are still loose after applying the adhesive, ensure you have applied weight to the problem area and waited at least 24 hours for the adhesive to cure. If your tiles are still loose after following these steps, apply more flooring adhesive until it begins to overflow out of the holes and wipe away any excess. Some floors may require several applications to ensure any looseness is eliminated.
The only specialist tools you need to apply the adhesive will be a caulk gun or, for especially small drilled holes, one of our micro injectors.
Each Fix-A-Floor tube comes with a removable cap that can be screwed back on to keep all remaining adhesive inside, making our adhesive for floor tiles a reusable and cost-effective product. Alternatively, you can store any adhesive in our refillable 3 litre tubs.
