Katek Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Hi all, We just completed our project of converting a bathroom into a wetroom and discovered that the tiles are moving approx 1mm up and down leading to the cracks and soft grout. We're now investigating the possible reasons and one that seems more probable is that the floors weren't correctly strengthened so they allow for the movement. The way they are laid now is that there's chipboards on top of joists (new chipboard under the wet area as it had water damage and the old one everywhere else), then cement boards, then durabase ci ++ membrane. What could have been the problem here? There's also a wet tray former directly underneath a shower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
