There is only one sure way of finding out and that is to remove a tile and see what is going on underneath. If the tiles are loose it may be possible to remove one without too much inconveiniance. If you can also send in some pictures of the floor type and the back of the tile we may get more of an idea of what is going on. The spaces should not be left in as the grout won't stick to these and would de-bond and they will stop the grout joint being fully compacted.

Thanks for your advice guys. I was thinking of going back to Tile Choice and having a chat with them. The tiles that have lifted are all on the same side of the room. The ones under and around the bath are still sound. Not sure if this is just because the ones that have lifted are the ones we walk on most. I need to make a decision soon as I can see a tile breaking before long.
