Hi Poynton Phil, looks like quite a big job that judging by the photos.

Be patient with the right tiler as it is quite specialised.

Yes Tom, I think so too. Thats why I haven't done it my self. I just hope I can find someone up to it.

It is the time thing.... everyone appears to be busy.

This looks like a rip out because of the movement of the floor. or at least some trimming of the tiles due to less space with the rising of the tiles.

Is it just the centre section that looks loose/debonded?

is it tiled onto ply?
will need to work out why its suddenly happened, water leak?

Looks like a rip out and replace job rather than a repair.
Dry weather and then the wet I would guess as probable cause.

Its on concrete, been down 18yrs, no leaks... The lady says she walked over it one day and noticed a loose tile, and 10 mins later...

We just had a record hot summer for 40 yrs. I'd suspect thermal expansion, if no water involved. Maybe Lack of movement joint around the perimeter. If it can't move outwards, it just blow's up in the middle. So does it rise up in the middle like a wave, or is it still flat? Be a shame to loose such a unique floor eitherway!
