Flat land - looking to go about 2 feet above road level. House about 2000 sq ft.

Why are you filling the land? Does it flood in the area or does the land itself have drainage issues? If it does not flood and you don't have drainage issues, it does not make technical sense to fill the land.
And if you do still want to fill the land for aesthetic reasons, then you need to ensure that the fill is properly compacted so you don't have foundation or floor slab settlement issues over time. There are a fair amount of people who call themselves builders who don't know anything about the importance of properly compacting the fill within the structure limits.

A lath is usually placed about 1 tike space off the ground using a level. Then wall tiled using the lath to rest on. The tiles wont lean forward, but it can slide down. This is what the lath prevents.eitech wrote:Hey how do you install tiles on a bathroom wall? I cant see the thinset bonding so quickly. Is there some special adhesive to use in this case?

It's called "rendering". The floor has to be striped of all wax , grime etc. A thin slurry or slush is mixed ,cement and water and spread over the damaged areas with a spreader. The floor can then be sanded with a terazzo machine and it looks new again. I even saw the guy who works for me doing it with a grinder.

Just make sure that the surveyor that signing off was actually there in the field, not just sending out a young technician to do he wuk. You know how these things does be. Any sort of surveyor is supposed to be on site as the super, overseeing the technicians
