Hi all,
I am new to this site and wondered if I could get some advice.
I've been a tiler for a few yrs but my knowledge and experiance with under floor heating is fairly limited. I have tiled over UHF using the latex screed with good results.
I got asked to do a quote for a customer who has had a limestone kitchen floor tiled over the electric UHF. The corners of the tiles have cracked and broken. so obviousley the tiler (cowboy) used the dob an dab method! The floor was not screed and here lies the question, I noticed the wiring had been laid on something that resembles compacted polystyrene. Is this acceptable? if I was trying to rectify the problem, by replacing the broken tiles, can I tile over this stuff using flexible adhesive? (that is of course, I can get the wires out of the old adhesive!)
I would appreciate any advice given.
Many thanks,
Tony
