What Tile master products?

Tile master levelflex was used for SLC.

Whats the reason for not using a rapid set on the walls?

As Mike or if theres a CTD branch near you.

Any pics of that screed? never seen that brand before.

Has the UFH been turned on since the SLC went down, do you have much Ditra left?

No ditra left im afraid and the ufh hasnt been switched on. Im sure the SLC wont fail but have used this stuff once before and didnt notice any cracks.

Do i need to use an epoxy grout for the shower area.

Didnt see you edited your post Whitebeam, thought the really was for me :lol:

No problem using rapid as long as your addy is flexi suitable for porcelain & UFH, id plump for Weber SPF rapid.
Would want to get to the bottom of the cracks before I proceed, was the SLC mixed per instructions? Is the floor deflection free.

Shame no Ditra left, I like to stick a decoupler on top of the screed, just a personal prefrence.

It would be best too, but make sure your tiler is experienced in using it.
On the downside overall cost is much more expensive.
Or a good flexi grout, seal after using a good grout sealer.

Your tiler should be advising you in regards to adh .so far all i am hearing is alarm bells ,you might be better to have a good talk to him and make sure you get the answers you want

Thats why you employ a tiler to do the job

Dont take this the wrong way .just trying to help
