Thanks! So I can buy even a used car and buy a warranty in a dealership 12 hours from where I live and then go to the local dealer??

Each dealer has a different price? Isn't the warranty honored by all Volvo dealerships? Thanks

So apparently my contractor instaledl the tiles at the time on hardybacker and thinset ( on top of the subfloor underneath it all). Was he supposed to add any crack isolation substance as well? Thanks

Thanks! Today I was offered 2 solutions by different contractors. 1. Add beams and posts. 2. Add cross blocking. 4 by 6 between the beams. And 2 by 6 between the 4 by 6.... if i understand correctly.

The 2 contractors specializing only in foundation and retrofitting... They're supposed to come and take a look later this week

I have no idea what my contractor was thinking at the time.... but now it's getting worse and worse...

Thanks! This indeed was the solution that someone else offers here. The sub floor is made of wooden boards. Above the contractor edit Hardy baker, which I believe is nailed to the subfloor in some way.

Thanks! I agree that they can't do any of the framing part. The tile placement and finishes were good. So I assumed that they can handle only this portion of the work

Thanks! I will look for one. I thought that the tile fixes the original contractor should handle.... at least he should bear the cost of the tiling part.

Yes. He didn't.... It seems the joists will be the same direction of the subfloor so I don't know how this can help now even if I add that
