Tiles are not unbreakable—oh yes, they are tough, durable and a superb lifetime investment, but bad installation can result in numerous problems. If the surface isn’t strong and fairly inflexible tiles could crack. Consider the example of placing a thin piece of wood between two chairs. Without strong support beneath, if you jump on it, it will break. That’s basic physics!
Improperly installed tiles with gaps beneath can suffer the same fate, though it may take much longer because they’re so strong. If the floor has too much give, the same thing can happen.

disappear.
