Ye he'll be sliding the pennies alright, and bouncing the golf ball. Would love to know the labour cost on the tiling alone tho
 
What an amazing house!
Tiler looked like he made a great job of tiling. But, those tiles were down when he moved in before the builder finished. They said he had no hot water, so no heating either!. Therefore underfloor commisioned.
A case of a good tiler who has the skill to tile very well. But needed to find info on tiling onto liquid gypsum heated screed.

Feel for him and the client.
 
made a few mistakes on fixing large format tiles trowel used serating you cant fix 600x600 the same way you fix large format never going to acheive more than 80 % covarage at best doing it that way
 
but i must be fair this is so typical a realy good tiler let down by the tile surplier who cant give him any info on how to fix there products and ends up going looking on the internet for the answers .shame on the tile surplier took the money and left the tiler holding the can same old still going on .the day all tilers demand a fixing spec .is the day the blame shifts to were it belongs .
 
Deffo didn't use gypsum based addy! Tut tut 😉

It looked like Kerakoll Eco H40 its mineral based so no cement in it to react with gypsum. I could be wrong though. But it didn't show them abraiding the floor prior to installation of tiles.
