Hello,
A few years ago I re-tiled our family bathroom, laying the tiles onto backer boards (see pic below). Unfortunately after a while the (flexible) grout started splitting, with a probable root cause of the tiles becoming loose. This may in turn be due to flexibility in the floorboards below.
I'm now in the process of starting over again, at lease for part of the room, and would like some advice please on how to do a better jop this time. For starters, I noticed that while the adhesive was doing a great job of sticking to the backer boards, there is hardly any on the back of the tiles themselves.
Any help appreciated.
