[QUOTE="elgropo, post: 978948, member: 57533"] We are just about to rip out a travertine bathroom. Breaks my heart as the wall tiles look great and there's a 1700x1000mm travertine shower tray. The floor tiles aren't so great. There's clearly been an issue at some stage and half the floor tiles had to be lifted. They've not been able to get exact size, so some grout lines are thicker than others and some of the tiles slightly chipped. Anyway, on to my question....the entire floor of the house has a wet UFH system and I am a little nervous about lifting the tiles. Any advice? I'm not going to be doing it personally, I have a contractor in. They don't seem to think it will be too much of an issue, but I want to know what to look for in order to judge whether they are going to inadvertently cause me a bigger issue? He did say there should be a min 35mm screed over it, so he'd just be careful. I am just wary because they are not specialist tilers, but multi-trade guys. They are doing another bathroom for me and the wall tiles are 1200x450mm, can they attach these to normal plasterboard or will that not take the weight? If I know the right questions to ask, I can ascertain whether they are the right guys for the job or not. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
