I've been asked to tile what looks like a cracked red screed. It could be some sort of water proof membrane and is about an inch thick which has been laid over the original floor. The building is hundreds of years old. It's mostly solid although it's fair to say that some of it is 'floating'...

What should I do...

I would be grateful for any advice you could give me. I have recently installed 600x450 travertine tiles in a fairly large conservatory 6.5m x 4.5m over wet UFH. Used 8-10mm beds of flexible adhesive and flexible grout with 3mm spacers.
My father did the installation. He's a bricklayer so is...
