I am tiling over UFH and want to know if there is a special grout required to do this or can I get away with normal grout. Want to avoid cracks later obviously.

We fitted the toilet today, Its a ROCA dual flush.
No leaks, and it flushes but when you open the lid you can see water running from the lip edge down into the toilet. Eventually of course the cistern level drops and it starts to fill up again.
Any ideas how to adjust / fix this?
Thanks

Just thought I'd say Hi.
I am an ambitious DIYer considering a change of career (currently tied to a desk and bored senseless!) and have been viewing the forum for a while now. Just need to pluck up the courage to make the leap and start doing some professional courses.

There are so many stray pipes and cables behind the boards that I am loathe to drill, plug and screw backer...
