[QUOTE="Sachin Parab, post: 886708"] Hi Localtiler, Thanks for your input into this. As Andy has mentioned the screed has been left to upto 7 weeks to dry considering it was tiled the second time. The hygrometer reading was within normal limits (cant remember the exact readings, but I was there when the readings were taken). He took the reading from different areas downstairs. When we lifted the tile the first time (when about 90% of the tiles were actually moving), the adhesive was stuck to the tile not the floor. Hence after discussion with technical team at Mapei the primer was used. This time around about 15-17 tiles of the total 180 odd tiles are showing signs of grout loosing and crackling sound is being heard under 3-4 of them. I am unsure why this should be happening if it was a bonding issue with the anhydrite. I would have expected all of them to have started moving by now. May be it will happen in due course I am not sure, but the first time it happened in a matter of a few days of turning the UFH on. [/QUOTE]
