Mapei provides a polished finish at St Andrew’s historic Old Course Hotel

January 28, 2025
Mapei has provided a seamless tile install solution for a stunning renovation project at The Old Course Hotel’s Kohler Waters Spa at St Andrews.  The project, designed by Unwin Jones Partnership, involved the installation of ceramic tiles and mosaics and complementary Profilpas profiles throughout the spa.  The installation was carried out by G & S Tiling for Caledonia Contracts.  All Mapei materials and floor tiles were supplied by Collinson Ceramics and wall tiles were supplied by Domus.

Recognised as one of Europe’s leading luxury resorts, The Old Course Hotel stands alongside the 17th hole of The Old Course, with panoramic views of the golf course and West Sands Beach. The hotel is also home to the only Kohler Waters Spa outside of the US, which has recently undergone a series of major renovations.  They included the extensive tiling project which spanned the entire spa, including wall and floor surfaces throughout the hydro, thermal and wellness areas.

The Kohler Waters Spa project required a quick turn-around, with Mapei carrying out regular site visits to provide technical support during the installation process. Grout and profiles were carefully selected to provide a pristine finish throughout the spa and complement the hotel’s historic grandeur.

During the installation, Mapei’s Keraquick S1 quick-setting, deformable adhesive was used to install wall and floor tiles and mosaics.  Surfaces were then grouted with Ultracolor Plus grout from the Zero Line, in Ancient White and Moon White shades for a cohesive finish.  An anti-efflorescence, quick-setting and drying polymer-modified grout, Ultracolor Plus benefits from water-repellent DropEffect® and mould-resistant BioBlock® and has CO2 emissions entirely offset in the entire life cycle*. Both the adhesive and grout have very low VOC EMICODE: EC1 Plus-certificated formulations for a safe, sustainable installation.  The installation was completed with Profilpas 10mm L shape Pro Angle Trim – an aluminium edging profile used to finish external corners and create a seamless finish.
