Mr Tiler

so ive taken up majority of the tiles today and started chipping away the adhesive... some of the ply was coming up with the adhesive and I have noticed that there seems to be a thin layer of ply over other ply... I cant get my head around it as you can see there are square pieces of wood over the joists but these lines were not visible until I chipped away this thin layer of ply which was no more than 3mm thick and seemed to be completely glued to the underfloor but why would there be joints im confused and my knowledge has hit its limit on this lol.

thanks mate and that is a lesson learned but u know what mate... I was actually sayin to the missus earlier when we purchased the tiles I thought the tiles felt and looked a little 'spongey' if you know what I mean. deffinately a lesson learned will always either be asking the absorbtion rate and or testing a single tile when doing it again. (need to try and remember to test a tile!) hopefully that statement will stay in me head for next time lol thanks mate :thumbs_up:
