    :)as kevboss said really. We however , remove floorboards , screw and glue 18mm ply ( with extra battening , particularly where boards meet) , prime , lay decoupling membrame, then tile following day. They've bodged it , probably lack of knowledge

    Wrong adhesive, what’s the chances they’ll be okay?

    Yep , all good there , manufactures just covering themselves I reckon , I wouldn't be worried and I'm a worrier! S2 will stick to anything

    How do you wrap tiles onto window sill? Just can’t seem to get the joints to line up perfectly?

    Incredibly brave for a non pro , must admit i would return square , otherwise keep offcuts and minus the tile trim . Often trial and error

    Help please repairing floor

    18mm ply and ditra is perfectly acceptable, but there is a lot that can go wrong if not done properly. Could be insufficient noggings , ply not primed , tiles not bedded properly and the list goes on...
