The D-C-Fix Waterproof Wall Tiles are designed for homeowners seeking a quick, stylish, and low-maintenance update for kitchens, bathrooms, and shower areas. These 1.4mm thick vinyl tiles offer an effortless peel-and-stick application directly over existing flat tiles, providing a fresh aesthetic without the hassle of removing old materials. A key caveat to note is that newly painted surfaces require a 4-week curing period before application, and edges in wet areas should be sealed for optimal waterproofing.

It is best to apply these tiles over existing flat tiles. Applying over wallpaper may lead to poor adhesion or damage the wallpaper upon removal. Ensure the surface is flat and smooth for best results.
The tiles are durable and designed for long-term use. They come with a 1-year guarantee. Longevity depends on installation quality and maintenance, especially in high-moisture environments.
No, grouting is not required. The clear membrane on the backing paper creates a waterproof barrier when one tile overlaps the next. Edges in wet areas should be sealed with a suitable sealant.
Yes, the tiles are designed to be removable without causing significant damage to the underlying surface, making them a flexible option for updating your space.
No, these tiles should be kept away from direct heat like a gas hob. While durable, prolonged direct heat can damage the vinyl material.
Each tile measures 30.5 x 30.5 x 0.1 cm.
You can easily clean the tiles by wiping them with a damp cloth and a mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaning materials.
Newly painted surfaces must be allowed to cure for a minimum of 4 weeks before applying the tiles. Applying too soon can trap moisture, leading to adhesion issues and potential damage to the paint or tiles.
Ensure the surface is perfectly clean, dry, and flat. For difficult surfaces, consider using a tile adhesive (e.g., Bostik or similar) applied to the wall or the back of the tile. Ensure the clear membrane is intact and the backing paper has been fully removed.
Smooth out the tile with a soft cloth or credit card while applying, working from the center outwards. If a bubble persists, you may be able to carefully prick it with a fine needle and press flat.
This indicates the edges are not properly sealed. Re-seal all exposed edges in wet areas using a waterproof sealant suitable for bathrooms and kitchens. Ensure tiles overlap correctly to maintain the waterproof barrier.
Ensure tiles are from the same batch and oriented correctly. Check that the clear membrane is not obscuring the pattern on the edge of the previous tile.
