Default Tiling on floating floors

I have recently tiled on an existing kitchen floor, which had 22mm weigh rock and 6mm ply on top screwed at 100mm intervals. Also the new kitchen floor had a concrete base, insulation, weigh rock and ply and is a floating floor. Most of this floor was screwed down except a small area were all the pipe work is.

The floor sloped from existing floor to new floor approx 1"-2". I started with the highest point and worked my way down dotting and dabbing to get as best a level as poss.

The customer is pleased with the job, but were the pipework is and therefore could not be screwed down the grout is starting to crack. The customer has said thats fine he will just re-grout every time it cracks.

I feel a bit guilty as if it was my house I would not be happy.

What can I do? He prepd the the floor and I tiled it.

Regards Scott
