Hi. I am a retired guy (philip) thinking of marble tiling the bathroom

Having had a guy with 40 years experience in to re-tile the bathroom in marble the tiles started to fall off within a couple of days. He used two part adhesive onto a plaster base but the adhesive appeared to reject the tile. Any advice would be welcome as I don't fancy a 5-6 Kg tile falling on my head whilst bathing.
 
hi there, i would use flexible standard setting adhesive.(topps tiles do a good one) on marble tiles. makesure you damp sponge to take the chalk from the back of the tile. this could be the reason the adhesive rejected the tile and fell off hope this helps you regards steve
