Wunda overfloor heating with floating surface with taped joints

Silicone for grout..?
That's a new one on me..

 

[One Day]

If (and I suspect he has) the professional tiler has indeed used silicone in place of grout...
Can we dare say he's not professional?!

Yes, he is professional. I also know that silicone will need to be replaced in few years time and it's not very common to use silicone instead of grout. But it can be used especially when there may be some movement.

Those are the backer boards:

Hi @PawelM ,

I’m in a similar situation having laid the overfloor heating system and looking for advice before tiling. Can you provide an update on your outcome? I’m keen to know if the floating backer boards worked and if you’ve had any issue since

Many thanks
