Discuss Porcelain tiles on top of 90 day old screed in the Canada Tile Advice area at TilersForums.com.

Hi
After some advice, I am a DIY tiler and going to be tiling our kitchen extension floor with porcelain tiles ( have tiled before so confident with tiling).
We had the screed laid (sand/cement @ 75mm) about 90 days ago, I’m confident it dried and has no cracking anywhere and level. The screed is on top of block and beam, dpm and 150mm jablite insulation, no UFH.
My question is will I be ok just to prime the floor with Bal primer after it’s been cleaned up etc and use a flex adhesive? Or do I need to use a Ditra matting etc before?
