I'm not sure that 6mm insulation board is considered strong enough to overboard a chipboard floor .

Ok thanks for that I’ll tell the client

Oh do it is ok when some other p.o. suggests that bct tiles are poor but if I do it then it is nonsense.... well go ahead and take my highly fantastical advice with a pinch of salt.

Got to agree with you Tom.
I wouldn't do it either.
Why even do it with the customer's blessing, knowing that it will fail?
Pointless exercise in my opinion.
I have yet to see a BCT ceramic tile which I would be happy to install on any suspended floor.

Didn't British used to mean "quality" products?
They should remove the B part of the name as it's an embarrassment.

The carpenter has put the floor down and put plenty of screws in it and there is no bounce

This is what he sent me and he said he’s speaking to the rep on Monday.
