Frequently Asked Questions
What is tile substrate preparation?
Tile substrate preparation makes the base sound, level and suitable for the next tile-system layer. It covers screeds, bonding slurry and tile-bed isolation products before the tiles go down.
When do I use a screed before tiling?
Use a screed to form levels, falls or required thickness before tile installation. A screed shapes the base; it does not replace the adhesive used to bond tiles.
What does bonding slurry do?
A bonding slurry helps a bonded screed adhere to the prepared concrete substrate. Place the screed wet-on-wet over the slurry where the product instructions require it.
Must I prepare the concrete before a screed?
Yes. The concrete must be sound, clean and prepared as the selected product requires. Remove weak material, laitance and contaminants that can reduce the bond below the surface.
Is a tile-bed isolation product waterproofing?
No. A tile-bed isolation product helps manage substrate stress below tile adhesive. Use a separate approved membrane where the job requires waterproofing or a wet-area seal.
How fast do rapid-set screeds go off?
Some rapid-set screeds are walkable in a few hours and ready for tile much sooner than a standard screed. Follow the product pot life and curing window. Do not rush the cure to beat a deadline.
