Tile failure

[hotrod]

Hi, got a couple of gaps (2mm-12mm) in between WBP boards where I need to rebed tiles due to failure. What can I fill these gaps with, am rebedding the tiles on 1-part flexi - can I use this to fill the small gaps and maybe trim some timber fillets into the larger gaps, or can I use this for the 12mm gaps as well?

Or am I best off using something like this?

Thanks for any advice guys

Oh dear, some more info would be useful to understand why you had the failure; why you have such large gaps & exactly where they are, over a joist or unsupported? Adhesive can be used to fill out up to a point but if the edges of the board are unsupported, it will just fail again.

Don’t use wood filler.

Rich, I know exactly why the tiles have failed - it's because the ruddy tiler spot bedded the things and didn't do the floor prep properly - it's not my job, but having lifted the cracked ones I ain't getting the tiler back that's for sure. It's only a couple I can sort myself - no worries.

I'll fill with flexi-addy / timber fillets. Cheers.

screw the fillets down, not nail, also flexi grout but if he has dot and dabbed all the tiles be prepared for it to start happening all over, he was`nt a tile fixer you employed mate
