[QUOTE="chrisstefanski, post: 990730, member: 61611"] Ah, the joys (and occasional frustrations) of DIY bathroom renovations! It sounds like you've been through quite the journey with those pesky woodworms and the whole shebang. But hey, you're tackling it like a champ! Now, onto the tiling adventure – a first-time endeavour, no less! Kudos to you for diving in headfirst. Prepping the ply with SikaBond SB Stabiliser and using Mapei Flexi adhesive? You're speaking my language :) But uh-oh, a little bounce in the tiles, you say? Not exactly what you were expecting, I'm sure. Here's the scoop: A tiny bit of flexibility isn't uncommon, especially with a floor that's seen its fair share of history like yours. As long as the tiles are snugly stuck in place and not easily budging, you're probably okay. It's like they're doing a little dance of their own, but nothing to fret about. Now, before you start grouting and wrapping up the whole shebang, why not double-check everything? Make sure the adhesive has had enough time to set properly, and maybe even give each tile a gentle tap to see if any sound suspiciously hollow. And hey, if all else fails, a quick chat with a tiling pro like those at Melksham Bathroom Fitter might ease your mind. Remember, we're all learning as we go, and you're doing an ace job for a first-timer! Keep that positive attitude flowing, and before you know it, you'll have a bathroom that's straight out of a magazine. Go you! [/QUOTE]
