Reply to comment by RatWithChainsawLegs in Advice on Tiling over Vinyl Tiles by RatWithChainsawLegs

I had tons of cracks and problems with the concrete in the basement. I tiled over the membrane and haven’t had any cracks transfer through and it’s been about 10 years so far. Between that and the tile lashes it’s the only way I’ll tile.

Hell yeah, this is what I want to hear, especially since I'm planning to technically break the rules and go over these tiles. For Tile Lashes, you're talking about these guys?

Yeah. As a non professional they kept all the corners of the tile on the same level for me. Had a hard time when I did a tiny bathroom without them and there’s 1 or 2 tiles that have a corner slightly raised that you notice when your bare foot drags across it. In the 1500 sqft of tile I did in the basement I don’t have a single one poking up.
