That’s not the easiest question to answer to be honest as there’s a lot of variables involved. The adhesive and grout is highly dependant on the substrate they a going onto but if you are getting a professional fixer in, they’ll hopefully be able to supply the correct product.

I would clean the tile surface once they are fixed into place and then get a professional in like ourselves, the tile edges will need to be dressed ready for laying. We use a computerised machine to do this, but you could either file the old cement off or use a concrete rubbing block; just be careful not to chip the surface.

I have got the EXACT same floor as the one in the above clip (shown on your website from Hednesford, Staffordshire). I am based in Hammerwich in Staffordshire so only just down the road. I purchased my floor tiles from a house in Bromsgrove in the West Midlands; a couple were laying laminate flooring and were selling off their tile floor. Each tile was carefully removed and i currently have about 10 large bags of tiles, which now require a thorough cleaning, any remaining tile adhesive/grout removing, and then the tiles re-laying in my hallway. I am wondering what is the best way to clean each individual tile, and general hints or tips. What product would you suggest as i do not want to harm or damage the tiles/colours etc… many appear to be splashed with paint and plaster. Also advice on tile adhesive and gouting would be appreciated. Once the tiles have been relaid they will require a thorough cleaning and sealing, so I was wondering whether this would be something you could do for me?

I have pictures of the tiles laid in their original setting if this helps?

Looking forwards to your reply.

Best regards,

Martin.
