I put down floor tiles on a suspended timber floor and even after taking all the right precautions I now find an number of them have come loose. The origional floor was in good condition and I screwed plywood down to ensure no movement. I used the recommended flexible adhesive and left the tiles long enough to dry before walking on them. The odd thing is when I lifted the loose tiles the adhesive is still stuck solidly to the floor but the back of the tile is completly clean . Its like the tile popped up from the adhesive. The tiles were clean and free from grease etc when laid. Can anyone recommend how I ensure I don't have to relay them again in a few months. I have been told to add polybond with the water before mixing. Any one got any experience of this problem?
