[QUOTE="Spud 22, post: 930283, member: 51650"] diy tiler in need of advice from day to day professionals. I have tiled walls and floors over the years with good results and no comebacks. I have now hit a minefield of advice from many forums. I am tiling 45ms Of ceramic tile (150mm x 600mm) on to a concrete floor which was previously tiled with Marley tiles. There is a thin layer of bitumen adhesive remaining. There lies my problem! Many pros have said remove as much as I can, prime with Bal Sbr bond and should be fine? Many have said do not tile over primed bitumen it must be removed? The floors are reasonably level and in my opinion do not need SLC. In the past I have always used 5:1 ratio pva and laid ties when still tacky. I have never tiled over adhesive stained concrete and when I searched for advice my mind couldn't cope!My main concern is the chance of asbestos in the tiles/adhesive so scraping, sanding or grinding it off would be hazardous? Any advice will be gratefully accepted. Spud 22 [/QUOTE]
