Thx Dave. Quoted a bit high for the job as wasn't sure if i wanted it, as my 1st full mosiac floor. But there happy with the price so i'll do it( also knew it would give me time to find out the proper way to do it on here as i wasn't sure about what trowel to use and gear). It's an insurance job but floor had been tiled a couple off weeks ago but was a mess. He only used 3mm ply and looked like he had just dolloped the back of the tiles as wasn't 100% coverage. If(When) i do a good job it could get me in with the guy that does the cliams so heres hoping. Thx for the help
