Ensure a uniform, level, and professional finish with tile wedges from Kingfisher Direct.
Tiling wedges are indispensable tools for professional tilers and DIY enthusiasts alike, playing a crucial role in achieving flawless, level, and consistently spaced tile installations.
These small but effective tiling tools are designed to be used as part of a tile levelling system, ensuring every tile is perfectly aligned and preventing common issues like lippage (uneven tile edges) and inconsistent grout lines.
Investing in a quality tile levelling system and tile wedges offers many advantages for any tiling project, including:
-
Eliminating Tile Lippage: The primary function of tile wedges is to apply upward pressure, firmly holding adjacent tiles at the same height as the levelling tiling clips, completely eliminating frustrating, unsightly lippage. This results in a smooth, seamless surface that is aesthetically pleasing and safe.
-
Consistent Grout Lines: When used with their corresponding tile levelling clips, tile wedges act as precise spacers. The thickness of the clip's base determines the width of the grout joint, ensuring a uniform gap between tiles for a professional finish.
-
Quicker Installation: By simplifying the process of achieving a level surface and consistent spacing, tile wedges allow installers to work much faster. Once the wedges are inserted and tightened, the tiles are locked in place, reducing the need for adjustments and checks with a spirit level.
-
Suitable for Various Tile Types: Tile wedges are highly versatile and practical for a wide array of tile materials on walls and floors, including ceramic, marble, natural stone, and porcelain.
-
Reusable and Cost-Effective: While the tile clips are single-use, the plastic tile wedges are robust and designed for reuse across multiple projects. This makes the entire levelling system a cost-effective solution for anyone who tiles frequently.
-
Easy to Use: A tile levelling system is extremely user-friendly. After applying adhesive and placing the tile, the levelling clip base is slipped under the tile edge. The tiling wedge is then pushed or pulled into the clip until the tiles are flush. Once the adhesive has cured, the protruding part of the clip can be snapped off, leaving a perfect finish.
