    Epoxy Grout

    Welcome back to the tiling industry. Epoxy grouts have certainly changed and are almost as easy to use as cement grouts. The best ones I have come across are Kerakoll Fugalite Bio and the Bal Easypoxy. I would recommend the use of a white emulsifying pad for the first wash then a good grouting...

    Dark discolouration on tiles

    Cracked tiles on suspended floor

    No I have not laid LVT, and yes you can stick the anti-fracture mat with vinyl adhesive and tile over it, but you cannot level over it. In all the testing with different levellers they all cracked.

    Cracked tiles on suspended floor

    Yo got this wrong Ray The Anti-fracture mat cannot be levelled over. With the expansion and contraction of a levelling compound when it dries it will just crack all over, though it will be stuck to the mat. You would do better with a Schluter Ditra or Dural CI++Mat as the way the leveller locks...

    Off White shower grout with black spots !

    Anhydrite screed........

    Ajax123: Your last paragraph says it all for me. "I suppose, putting standards and test data to one side, as long as the test is applied accurately and consistently such that repeatable results are obtained and these can be measured against a scale of results it matters not what test is used."
