QUOTE(soR @ Jan 3 2014, 10:41 PM) guys i got the quote from a tiler, he charge like this 1*2 rm2.30 psf 2*2 rm2.70psf he charging labour only.. hows the price? i got around 9xxpsf for living and 212psf for dry kitchen.. Hi I think this is quite reasonable. Still need to look at the workmanship, if very rough then not worth it cos it will cost u even more next time if u wan to change it or any pop up of ur tiles

QUOTE(billyboy @ Jan 4 2014, 07:37 AM) i asked an indon contractor once and he said the following are possible; - not enough of the 'gum' applied when installing. - wrong % combinatoin of cement and sand. - the 'slab' (concrete foundation) is not properly done so when certain parts of the slab sinks, it pops out. - the 'slab' also needs to be done once, properly dried then only apply a second layer of cement for the tiles to stick to. A lot of short-cut guys does this in one step instead of two steps. i've also heard of cases in apartments where because the air-cond below is on all the time, then the unit above gets pop-ping tiles due to heat / cold differentiation. May I know when u install the tiles? How many years already? The mrt project may be one of the reason , if not mistake ur tiles is 2x2 tiles if the floor is not flat enough or didn't do sand Screeding last time when u install the tiles, this problems will occur especially the Mrt work ard ur area. Unlikely becos of moisture
