Shouldn't be used below 5 degrees, was it rapid set?

What addy are you using, what is the tile & what is the substrate your tiling on. Also, Is the heating on in the property?

Is there no heating in the house?

how im i going to tell the bossman

just say "Mr Boss Man, it's Very cold in here and the adhesive isn't setting. It might help if I used decent adhesive instead off tubbed stuff"

 

[Bubblecraft]

What's done is done. Is there a lot of movement in the tiles?
