the flexible adhesive should stick to the ply......but ply nailed down this would concern me as nails tend to work loose over a period of time...luckily or unluckily depending on which way you look at it 3m2 is not a massive area so hopefully deflection will be at a minimum.

It was an over enthusiastic customer who wanted to keep costs low so he wanted to ply out the floor, and he supplied all the grout and adhesive, just had to make do with what i had.I seen the ply before he put it down it was ample enough for the job as the floor boarding was in very good condition anyway.Could'nt tell you the thickness though.

It sounds as though you may get lucky.

I'm more concerened that if you saw the ply before it was fixed, you would know whether it was 5mm, 12mm or 18mm thick (if you can't tell the difference then contact Specsavers with all haste!). But most important, why didn't you offer to ply it yourself? or at least tell him it needed screwing at 150mm centres? 3sqm would have been plyed, stuck and grouted in a day, and you would still be able to collect the kids from school :lol::lol:. I would have charged a day rate and done the whole job correctly :thumbsup:.
