Hi,
We're just in the process of getting a new kitchen fitted and have had large 750mm square porcelain tiles laid and grouted. Only issue is that a few had a bit of a wobble on them a week or so after being laid and grouted. They came back, relaid the tiles in question but a week later there is the same issue with a few of them. We're at our wits end!
The floor is a ground floor above a basement so wooden floor boards which were pretty stuff as was then 12mm plywood then 6mm Jackoboard. The only thing is that the jackoboards were only screwed into the ply/floorboards with washers rather than any adhesive used. They also weren't taped along the joins. Could this be the issue or have the tiles been poorly laid or the wrong adhesive/grout used. They are both flexible and from Benfer.
Oh, and we have electric UFH under these tiles so every relay feels risky.
Thanks in advance.
