I did an experiment earlier and put a tile in the sink for just an hour ( I don't have a big enough bucket!). Was able to flake off the adhesive with a wall paper scraper and hammer...came off in quite big pieces and it seemed quite soft but would be hard work doing all of 106 of them I think. Plus not sure what I'd do if there's not enough due to cutting and waste etc once they're re-laid. I'm sure I wouldn't be able to match them after this time.
I like your tablecloth idea Bob Hey presto!
Seriously though so far by the looks of things the job has been done incorrectly on the following counts:-
1) 4mm ply used instead of 15mm and ply just screwed not glued as well.
2) Vinyl tiles left and boarded over - should have been removed.
2) Ply not taken up to edge of room leading to cracking of tiles.
3) Floor not marked up correctly leading to veering off at the other side of the room
4) Wrong mix of adhesive used - mixture too powdery
5) Adhesive not applied correctly and not enough used for suffiecient grab in places
5) Too small spacers used leading to differing widths between tiles.
6) Grout not mixed correctly and accurately leading to different colours.
I might just email the builder ( he's still trading!) and see what he says. Worth a try anyway!
