    Sand and cement screed down. How long

    I have a newly laid screed 75mm thick sand and cement laid 2 weeks ago. I'm stuck for time and need the ensuite floor tiles asap. Is there any products you can recommend for me so I can start laying now rather than wait another few weeks before it's fully dry.

    Setting Out How does this modular pattern work?

    On the diagram the width of tiles equates to 2m for both the rows marked 1 & 2. Row 1 has 6 grout lines Row 2 has 4 So total width of the rows is different, meaning grout spaces would have to be smaller on the row with more grout lines? What am I missing? Thanks

    Need advice. How do I raise the level of just one tile? See picture.

    I didn't tile this old bathroom but I'm cleaning it up, one tile is missing and needs to be almost half an inch forward to match the tiles around it. Can I use extra adhesive? Or extra cement? Or something else like mortar? I really need to get this fixed. Any tips would be appreciated. ed.
