Hi, I'm looking for advice and help so joined this forum.
I am in a really bad situation with a high street tile store and their recommended tiler.
A long story, but we purchased tiles and used their recommended fitters. A gyvlon screed was laid and dried as should be before tiling started. Tiles were laid after a quick brush of the floor and some PVA wiped over. You've probably guessed what's coming, all of my tiles are now loose and grout is falling out.
We informed store the screed was designed for underfloor heating before work commenced. After several months and many visits to my house, the store inform me they are not liable as we didn't inform them which screed we had used??
I have paid out £6k on this floor and have been treated terribly. The work hadn't even finished when we saw crack lines appear in the grout and the tiler walker off the job leaving it half finished.
Should the tiler have prepped the floor differently, regardless of what screed was used?
Any advise or help that can be offered would be great. Please ask any questions if further info needed.
Sorry for the rant.....very upset
Thanks
