    Got a strange one. What would cause bathroom tiles to start lifting off a concrete wall?
    They are up about 15 years and its a solid wall, but some appear to be lifting away. I could understand if it was a partition wall with some give, but not a solid wall?

    Rising damp
    Bad tiler
    Bad adhesive mix, as in the tiler made the mix too watery, or too dry, or added water to almost cured mix.
    Bad plaster underneath
    Bad grouting
