TILING ON CONCRETE SCREED

[nalla]

This job is not going to end well if you stick the stone to this screed after only 6 weeks with no ufh commissioning and no uncoupling.
I would insist on commissioning the ufh, then fit durabase mat or ditra to control the moisture which is left

I've sorted it now, i told him politely to get back the builder who laid the screed to lay the tiles as i wasn't prepared to lay them until the UFH had been running for at least a week, the customer insists that the floor is now ready for the tiles (it,s only been down for 3 weeks) where as i told him i would come back at the end of february, (26th) i also told him not toring me back in 6 months time when the tiles will have cracked. Thanks lads for all the replies it makes my choice feel that much easier.

Sounds like your better off out of it.

Apparently there is a builder round our called Ray Ferguson who does this as a matter of course.

I've heard of ray, never done any work for him tho, don't see the point of rigging up the electric system if the boiler can be fired? We just thought of it because it was impossible to get the boiler in for a couple months, and my tiles had to go down before aga, kitchen, water tank etc etc
