FAQs

Can I apply these tiles over textured wallpaper?

No, these tiles are designed for smooth, clean surfaces. Applying them over textured wallpaper may result in poor adhesion and an uneven finish.

How long will the adhesive last?

The strong PE adhesive is designed for long-term adhesion on appropriate surfaces. Proper surface preparation and installation are key to longevity.

Are these tiles safe to use behind a cooking hob?

They are not suitable for direct heat. Keep them away from direct heat sources like gas hobs. They can be used as a backsplash away from direct heat.

How do I remove the tiles if I want to change them?

Gently lift a corner of the tile and slowly pull it away from the wall. If resistance is met, warm the adhesive slightly with a hairdryer on a low setting and continue pulling gently.

Can I install these tiles on a ceiling?

These tiles are designed for wall application. Installation on a ceiling is not recommended due to gravity and potential adhesion issues.

What is the warranty period for these tiles?

The D-C-Fix Concrete Premium Self Adhesive Composite Wall Tiles come with a 1-year guarantee.

Do I need to grout these tiles?

No, there is no need to grout these tiles. They are designed to interlock and be applied without grout.

Troubleshooting

Tiles won't adhere properly.

Ensure the surface is clean, smooth, and dry. Re-apply by spraying a light mist of water on the adhesive side to help reposition and ensure firm pressure.

Difficulty repositioning tiles.

Spray a bit more water on the adhesive side. Allow it to sit for a moment before gently peeling and repositioning.

Bubbles appearing under the tiles.

Gently lift the edge of the tile and smooth it down, pushing air towards the nearest edge. A small pinprick can release trapped air if smoothing is not effective.

Tiles peeling at the edges.

Ensure edges are properly sealed if in a wet area. Re-press the edges firmly. If adhesion is poor, consider using a suitable adhesive enhancer designed for wall tiles.

Surface appears dull or scratched.

Clean gently with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers. The surface is scratch-resistant but not scratch-proof.

Pros and Cons

  • Water-resistant surface is practical for kitchens and bathrooms.
  • Durable and easy to clean, maintaining its appearance.
  • Removable, allowing for easier updates or changes.
  • The thickness adds a sense of quality and authenticity.

Cons

  • Not suitable for use inside shower cubicles.
  • Requires a 4-week curing period for newly painted walls.
  • Must be applied to smooth, clean surfaces; imperfections may show.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Allow the tiles to acclimatize in the room where they will be installed for at least 48 hours before application.
  2. Ensure the wall surface is smooth, clean, dry, and free from dust or grease. If applying over existing flat tiles, ensure they are firmly adhered and the surface is clean.
  3. For newly painted walls, wait a minimum of 4 weeks for the paint to fully cure before applying the tiles.
  4. Carefully remove the backing paper. The tiles are interlinked; ensure they are aligned and level as you apply them.
  5. If repositioning is needed during installation, lightly spray water on the adhesive side of the tile.
  6. Consider sealing the edges if the tiles will be installed in wet areas.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for smooth, clean, painted walls or over existing flat tiles.
  • Not suitable for textured, uneven, or dirty surfaces.
  • Not recommended for direct use inside shower cubicles.
  • Keep away from direct heat sources like gas hobs.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a damp cloth.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the surface.
