How to Apply Everbuild 703 Fix and Grout:
Prepare the Surface:
Ensure the surface is clean, stable, and free from dust, grease, or debris. Any loose or flaking material should be removed to guarantee proper adhesion. For porous or highly absorbent surfaces, consider applying a suitable primer beforehand to enhance bonding.
Spread the Adhesive:
Using a notched trowel, apply an even layer of adhesive to the surface or the back of the tile. Work in manageable sections to prevent the adhesive from drying before tiles are positioned. For best results, cover only an area that can be tiled within 10-15 minutes.
Position the Tiles:
Press each tile firmly into the adhesive, using a slight twisting motion to ensure full contact and secure placement. Use spacers if necessary to maintain even grout lines and achieve a uniform finish.
Apply Grout:
After allowing the adhesive to set (typically 24 hours), use the same product to grout between the tiles. Apply the grout using a suitable applicator or grouting tool, ensuring the gaps are completely filled.
Clean Excess Grout:
Wipe away any excess grout with a damp sponge before it begins to dry, taking care not to disturb the grout lines.
Curing:
Allow the grout to cure fully before exposing the area to water, heavy use, or cleaning. This will ensure a long-lasting and durable finish.

Questions and Answers:
FAQs Everbuild 703 Fix and Grout Tile Adhesive
1. What makes Everbuild 703 Fix and Grout unique compared to other adhesives?
Everbuild 703 Fix and Grout stands out because it combines both adhesive and grout in a single product. This dual-purpose formulation simplifies the tiling process by eliminating the need for separate adhesive and grout materials, saving time and effort. Additionally, its brilliant white finish enhances the aesthetic appeal of the tiles, providing a clean and polished look.
2. Can this product handle exposure to water regularly?
Yes, Everbuild 703 Fix and Grout is water-resistant, making it an excellent choice for areas exposed to occasional splashes or moisture, such as bathrooms, kitchens, and utility rooms. However, it is not designed for continuous water immersion, such as in swimming pools. For constant wet conditions, a specialized adhesive is recommended.
3. Is this adhesive suitable for all tile types?
This adhesive is specifically formulated for ceramic tiles. While it provides excellent adhesion for these, it may not be suitable for heavier or porous tiles, such as natural stone or porcelain. For those tile types, you should opt for a specialized adhesive.
4. Can I use this adhesive for floor tiles?
No, Everbuild 703 is intended for wall tiling only. It lacks the strength required for floor tiles, especially in high-traffic areas. For flooring applications, choose a tile adhesive specifically designed for floor use.
5. How should I prepare the surface before applying this product?
Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and stable. Remove any dust, grease, or loose materials, as these can affect the adhesion. For porous or highly absorbent surfaces, applying a primer beforehand is recommended to ensure a secure bond.
6. How long does it take for the adhesive to cure fully?
The adhesive typically sets within 24 hours, depending on room conditions such as temperature and humidity. For best results, allow it to cure completely before exposing the tiled area to moisture or applying heavy loads.
7. Is this product suitable for touch-up or repair work?
Absolutely. The Everbuild 703 Fix and Grout is perfect for small repairs or touch-ups, such as replacing individual tiles or refreshing grout lines. Its brilliant white finish ensures the repaired area blends seamlessly with the existing tiles.
8. How much coverage can I expect from the 5-litre tub?
Coverage depends on the tile size, grout line thickness, and the substrate’s condition. Typically, the 5-litre tub covers between 5–10m². For precise calculations, consider the size of your tiles and the space between them.
9. How do I clean up after using this adhesive?
Clean tools and remove any excess adhesive from tiles with a damp cloth immediately after application. Once the product has dried, removal may require mechanical scraping, so prompt cleanup is recommended for efficiency.
10. Can this adhesive be used in high-humidity environments like spas or steam rooms?
While it is water-resistant and suitable for moisture-prone areas like bathrooms, it is not designed for the constant high humidity levels found in steam rooms or spas. For such environments, consider using a more specialized adhesive designed to withstand prolonged humidity exposure.
