The 12x12 ceramic tiles on my Florida house are actually popping up and need to be replaced. I think they are lifting because of cheap mastic with no flexibility and the way it was installed butting the baseboard leaving no room for expansion. I don't want to put in a full 3/4 " hardwood floor because of the height I would lose. I don't know if I should go with the pergo floor or a laminate. Also, should the foam be installed under both? Maybe the foam can be laid on top of the dried mastic and create an even enough surface..I've put back some of these tiles in the past and the mastic that sticks to the floor creates an uneven surface that must be considered. Of course, cost is a factor.
