FAQs

How many spacers do I need?

Use the Ready Reckoner provided on the packaging to calculate the number of spacers needed. Alternatively, measure the area and calculate based on tile size and desired grout lines.

Can I reuse the spacers?

Yes, Vitrex tile spacers are reusable. Clean them after use and store them in the resealable bag or tub.

Are these spacers suitable for all tile sizes?

The 5mm spacers are ideal for many applications. However, consider the grout line width required for your specific tile size and project before using them.

What material are the spacers made from?

The spacers are made from a durable material designed to withstand the pressures of tile installation and maintain even spacing.

How do I remove the spacers?

Once the adhesive has set, the spacers can be easily removed. A gentle tug or the use of a small tool may be required.

What if my grout lines are too wide or too narrow?

Ensure you are using the correct size spacers for your project. If grout lines are inconsistent, check your tile alignment and spacer placement.

Where can I buy these tile spacers?

Vitrex tile spacers are available at most hardware stores and home improvement retailers. Check online for availability.

Troubleshooting

Spacers are difficult to insert.

Ensure the tile adhesive is not too thick and that the tiles are properly aligned. Adjust the spacer's position if necessary.

Grout lines are uneven.

Double-check the placement of the spacers and the tile alignment. Ensure the tiles are level.

Spacers are visible after grouting.

Remove the spacers once the adhesive is set and before grouting. If spacers are still visible, ensure they are fully embedded in the adhesive before tile setting.
