Hi all,my tiler fitted 600x600 porceline tiles to my calcium based concrete slab,it was 4 months after it being poured and he did a test by laying a peice of polythene taped around edges to see if it was still emiting moisture,this was after it was professionally sanded sorry and no moisture was detected,
He proceeded to seal the floor with norcos prime bond (duck egg green colour) the day before and layed tiles with decent Weber https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ which I supplied,
Few month after moving in and building heat up gradually I heard crackling sound,I’ve now lifted every tile with a sucker leaving the floor perfectly clean,no https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ has stuck apart from a hand sized area around a door post and beside back door,
On backs of tiles shows signs of a green colour like the bonding norcos primer,can any one help to what has happened as tiler at a loss as well

Why the mix of primer and https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ manufacturers? ...although it wouldn't usually cause a problem but you have lost any manufacturers warranties mixing them up..

What dilution rate of primer ? Was the heating turned commissioned prior to tile ?

I've seen two around my way, tiled one, the other wouldn't let me test it so walked.
I have test equipment but really can't see it taking of at all.
I did have a customer who had a company lined up to do about 300m2, 50m2 was a pool surround. He was expecting me to tile it after 2 weeks. Got sand and cement in the end.
