I'm in the process of doing my bathroom and I've just laid the floor
with 10mm thick tiles. Because of the wooden floor, I used some BAL
fastflex adhesive and I'm thinking about using this to fix the pan to
the floor. I've done a test piece using a couple of bits of floor
tile. The adhesive seems to be really strong and I'd like to use it
without screws but I'd like some reassurance. Is it accepted practice
to use fix a toilet pan to a tiled floor in this way?
TIA,

It will work, but silicone is better.

Fair enough. Having listened to what everyone has said, I'll screw it
through the tiles into the wooden floor and use silicon as a bed.

Thanks to everyone for their input.
