Here's my opinion, you have or are paying for a job to be done professionaly. The builder has used some poor quality leveller which isn't suitable, why would you want to try and cover it with this and that and cross your fingers and toes that it might work and might not fail in a years time. If it was me I would tell him to get it up and get somebody in who can do the job propperly. Any photos of the installation? A lot of ufh systems fail due to incorrect installation!
You shouldn't have to make do with uncertainties!!

Thanks gents, I've got a 'pro' coming in on Monday AM so let's see how it goes.

It looks a bit of a mess. Turns out he's put 2 layers of the 708 on and it's unbonded from the base layer as I've now got some hollow sounding areas. It gets worse :(

Anybody have any recommendations of tilers in the Leicester area?

Get the lot up and have it re done using the right people and right materials. What is the sub floor, wood? Screed?

Should have mentioned your on the wrong forum really!

What you want is a Karndean installer not a tiler (no offence intended lads) Karndean installation and floor preparation for Karndean is a specialist craft. I'd recommend giving Karndean a ting They can point you in the right direction They have a list of trained fullt trained installers.
I'm on it but your a bit far away sorry

Good with this
You'll need it :)
