Hello,
I’m new to tiling and to forums so my apologies for both if there are any etiquette failures!
I’ve scoured the internet and can’t find any tangible advice on tiling on over overfloor heating. We installed the Wundafloor EPS 400 system ourselves (other half and I) and are concerned about...

have done plenty of UFH electric mats under tiles, & plenty wetrooms with tanking.
However, I have never incorporated both..
Is tanking done under or over electric mat?
Is it ok to bring UFH mat onto shower former?
Cheers!

We have prowarm electric mat laid on concrete base. Ceramic tiles 600x 150 mm laid on top. One tile makes a ‘cracking’ noise when walked on; assume this is a sign it is loose. The grout is still intact.
Is there any solution that doesn’t involve ripping my hall floor up.
Hi All,
I am new to the forum so I apologise for my mistakes.
I have lifted a laminate flooring from a hallway floor to expose loose tiles adhered with a thin layer of what looks to be bitumen.
After reading many people's posts I have scraped as much as I can off. Beneath the screed is a...

We have a suspended wooden floor and as far as i...
