I have had a proper floor company in to give me a quote to rip it up and start again, the builder has been given that quote. There's no way of removing the tiles without destroying them. I foolishly believed that a builder with 35 year experience could do this to a reasonable standard. This...

Builder denies that he's caused any cracking and that I should have supplied anti fracture matt. He has offered to re-lay the floor but I would have to pay for materials, but there's no point if he's already done it "to the best of his ability". I gave him full fitting guidelines from the...
