You have removed them and the surface has dried but the screed could still be wet and the damp still rising (but evaporating before it looks wet). Adhesives and limestone can be fixed to a damp screed, but you really need to get...

    Do not put ply on top, that would be contrary to British Standards and is likely to fail. To tile directly onto the panels you would need to get a specification direct from an adhesive manufacturer. Try Building Adhesives, Kerakoll, Ardex or Norcros. You might want to prepare yourself for bad news!
