hi,

i have ufh so will need flexible adhesive for the floors but the tile store is trying to tell me that i also need it for the walls as i have UFH..is this correct or just a selling ploy..i was just going to use the normal adehsive.

I was going to us Panabond adhesive as it on special offer at the building providers..is this any good????
 
Is the walls concrete, slabs or ply. If it is concrete or slabs then the non-flexi is absolutely fine but if its ply you will need flexi.
 
Agreed if its ply it will need to be flexible. Also if it's pocelain or marble or if you're tiling over tile. Make sure you use a primer also. Either bal apd or evostik technik primer 918.
Panabond adhesive will do but you can get better.
 
Its plastered block walls i'm tiling, i was recommended a fully vitrified adhesive powder mix so will go for that as he was saying it was the best on the market and i was getting it at trade prices..
