Mapei adhesives & grouts · Sri Lanka
Most tile failures are adhesive failures. A porcelain tile absorbs almost no water, so traditional cement and sand cannot grip it. The result is hollow, cracked and lifting tiles a year or two later. C&S Projects supplies Mapei tile adhesives and grouts in Sri Lanka, and we will tell you exactly which one your tile and location needs.

Why epoxy grout is worth the extra cost
Cement grout is porous. In a Sri Lankan bathroom that means it absorbs water, darkens and grows mould. Epoxy grout is non-absorbent and resistant to stains and cleaning chemicals, so the joints stay the colour you chose. It costs more and needs a skilled applicator, but it removes the single most common complaint about tiled bathrooms.
Kerapoxy Cleaner is available to remove epoxy residue from the tile surface after grouting. Already fighting mould? See mould remover in Sri Lanka.
