    How to fix creaky and loose floor tiles 

    Ready to learn all about how to fix hollow tiles and remove those annoying creaking noises? It’s easier than you think. Follow these steps:

    To open the tube: 

    • Remove the cap from the tip.
    • Unscrew the tip from the tube.
    • Use a masonry drill bit to create an opening at the top of the threaded tube nub or cut the plastic tip carefully with a Stanley knife.

    Cut the customisable plastic tip to size:

    • Trim the tip to fit your grout width.
    • For smaller grout widths, carefully poke a hole through the tip or cut the end of the tip with scissors.
    • Screw the tip back onto the tube.

    TOP TIP: Keep the tube upright until ready to use; place a finger over the tip when moving from hole to hole to avoid spillage.

     

    DIRECTIONS:

    How to Fix Creaky/Loose/Hollow Tile, Stone & Marble Floors:

    1. Locate the hollow tiles and areas by tapping with a wooden dowel or fingers.
    2. Drill 2-4 holes on each side of the tile using a masonry drill bit.
    3. Vacuum over each hole to remove debris and dust or clean with a dustpan and brush.
    4. Insert your Fix-A-Floor tube into a caulking gun and place the tip into one of the drilled holes.
    5. Fill holes as needed, ensuring the adhesive flows consistently. For best results take your time, apply slow gentle pressure on the caulking gun, and allow for the adhesive to exit from the tip.
    6. Once the area has been filled, wipe away any excess adhesive that has spilt out.
    7. Allow the adhesive to cure for a minimum of 24 hours.
    8. Fill the drilled holes with matching grout.

      Always remember, when allowing the adhesive to cure for the 24-hour period, place some sort of weighted object on the area being fixed. This will assist in creating a strong bond between the tile and substrate. This can simply be partially filled buckets of water. . 

    Our top tips 

    • For underfloor heated areas, simply mark your drill bit to the depth of the tile using any kind of masking tape as guidance.
    • Collect the dust and reuse it to fill the pilot holes, saving time mixing up a grout to match.
    • For best results when fixing loose floor tiles, go nice and slowly – while Fix-A-Floor is extremely low viscosity – easy, slow, gentle pressure on the caulking gun allows for the adhesive to exit from the tip in a consistent manner. If you apply too much pressure it may result in adhesive coming out of the rear, so take your time.
