Been to see the most beautiful limestone floor today laid over gyvlon screed. 40k worth of limestone throughout two floors of a large new build house. Really lovely ob. Unfortunately the reason i went to see it is because the tiles had begun to fail and were moving on the screed. The tiler had done a cracking job on the prep and all was done really well so i was surprised to get the call. When we lifted a tile the g-mat uncoupling membrane came apart with the platic part stuck firm to the bottom of the adhesive on the tile and the fabric part stuck fast to the adhesive on the screed. There was no sign of any problem other than this.
I know there were a few threads started some while ago abut problems with this mat. Is there anyone who can say if this problem is characteristic of those problems. There was a lovely crackiling noise like walking on crisp bags when walking on some of the tiles.
Also what was the resolution been as it would be lovely if there was some sort of resin injection system available to pump under the tiles to restick everything. I fear it will all have to come up which would be a crying shame.
Hate it when things go wrong like this
