Floating floor?!

[High Peak Tiling]

Got asked to price a job up in a pizza kitchen.
tiles all bouncing & cracked due to deflection (majorly)

there was a hole in the floor when I got there. Mixed tiles laid onto flakey ply which laid on polystyrene insulation sheets which laid on Dmp sheet on concrete floor!

ply bounces everywhere, polystyrene bouncing...
Advice on what to do here please?

By all means get a pizza but whatever you do, dont tile the floor.

avoid the hole in the floor, go to Dominoes and never tile floating floors.. or only fix with sky hooks ;-)

 

[High Peak Tiling]

the main purpose of the floor is to improve floor insulation, I think if I can get the job, I would be better off taking back the insulation and tiling straight in the the concrete, once prep'd & primed.

height issues ????? lots of latex on tamped concrete !! may have been a damp problem ?

 

[High Peak Tiling]

was a damp issue partially. too meet the other tiles, I want to take it back to concrete, prime, latex, thick bed gear to meet other tiles.?

[High Peak Tiling]

no damp issues on the concrete, water leaked else where and ran under all floating insulation & ply
