Hi people,

So I'm about to have my first go at tiling, its a small en-suite where the existing floor tiles have some cracks and are some are a bit loose. I'm planning on ripping them up this weekend and removing as much adhesive as possible but it looks like these were laid straight onto the floorboards previously.
Am I right in thinking I would need to use 6mm backerboard for a better stable tiling job and if so do I have to screw them down as I would be in full on panic mode about hitting CH pipes. Would flexible tile adhesive under them be enough? If not can anyone recommend a screw length or type that would work and guarantee I don't hit any pipes!
Thanks in advance.
