The brown stuff could be type 1....

Ooooooo - Don't get a sample then! Get a specialist in! Or just tile over it and never touch it. Never thought of that!

Looks like you could do with a decent Ditra supplier. 😀

But I'm worried now about the brown stuff. If you don't touch it or mess with it and none of it is showing, and the plumber is alive still (I shouldn't joke!) then perhaps tile over it and just don't disturb it just in case. Warn the owners perhaps. See what they'd like to do about it.

Ask the lads at work see what they'd do 😀 😀 haha

Do you have any pictures of your previous tiling work by chance?

if the tiles have been down since the house was built then taking them up could open a can of worms and cost u a lot of money lay a decoupling membrain over the tiles ditra is the best but others are available make sure the membrin is water proof as some times these tiles are the dpm. as dave said the membrain eleviates any lateral stresses from the floor benieth but I wouldn't worry about expansion as theres no ufh to stick the membrain to the floor I would use a S2 addy such as tilemasters ultimate I would also recommend it for adhearing the tiles to the membrain prime first with tile masters primer. iwould also do the same for the bathroom floor same addys prime 1st good luck

Is this the adhesive Ray? So I would prime then use tilemasters ultimate to stick the ditra to the quarry tiles and then again to stick the porcelain tiles to the Ditra? Thanks for the help lads really appreciate your advice. I wont go near the quarry tiles best left alone as I never knew they used asbestos.
