Re: Water fountain tiles have fallen off

Hello @Britt98 

 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing in g your question about your water fountain tiles.

 

I suggest washing the bare wall with 30 Seconds 5L Outdoor Cleaner Concentrate and a scrub brush. Rinse the area very well to wash off any mould or mildew that may have deposited itself on the surface of the wall. Use the same washing process for the back of the tiles. See if you can remove the old adhesive that was used on the back of the tile. Once you've made the tile as clean as possible, I recommend using Dunlop 2kg Tile-All Tile Adhesive to stick the tile panels back into place. 

 

Apply the tile adhesive evenly and use masking tape to keep the tile in position. Work from the bottom going up make sure to use the tile all adhesive evenly. Make sure to support the tiles with masking tape to prevent them from falling or moving. Once the adhesive cures you can remove the masking tape. 

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.
