Just two days after Mr Bathroom Installation Chappy completed his work (and got paid) I notice grout coming up from in between my lovely new bathroom floor tiles.
Closer inspection confirms there is movement when you walk from tile to tile so I took up the hallway carpet to see was base layer was applied between the tiles and the floorboards:
As the photo shows, he's used a three-ply of approximately 6-8mm. Now, I'm no expert in these things but thought you'd want something more substantial between the tiles and floor boards?
Can anyone please advise as to the minimum type of layer you would lay on top of the floor boards?
Should I ask that he re-lay the entire floor (which is gonna be a pain in the backside as his lowest wall tiles are cut to sit on top of the edge of the floor).
In fact, any advice is very much appreciated.
Cheers in advance.
