its a hard one to start as your 1st job ,what size tiles are they and which granite is it ? your floor preparation will need to be spot on as highly polished tiles are unforgiving, you will need to hire a good quality wet cutter and solid bed the tiles, 3mm joints maximum good luck with it I am sure you will get sound advice and help from the lads on here

under normal circumstances there is no need to prime a screeded floor or to use flexible adhesive with granite tiles but i use flexible adhesive for everything these days as the difference in price isnt that great, if the subfloor hasnt been screeded well or there is a lot of suction from it prime with sbr bond hope this helps
