Hi Everyone,
I got a call last week and went round to a very nice flat near to me.They had a polished tile floor in the living room and about 5/6 of the tiles (large format) were cracked in different places around the room.He said he had five spare tiles and would I be able to replace the cracked ones.It was wasn't a very good tile job in the first place as there was little or no grout used (some almost butted up) and joints which were out.Anyway, he then said there was underfloor heating which they didn't want damaged.So I got a bit nervous then and backed out explaining the reason for cracking was movement and I didn't want to go open a can of worms for myself and go about with a hammer and chisel only to get blamed for damaging the heating wires underneath.They understood this.I've never actually put down underfloor heating, was I right to back away? or would it have been reletively easy?
regards,
Paul
