i need expert advice, someone to check out my floor tiling and let me know if I need to replace all the floor or if I can replace only the cracked tiles.

That's a hard thing to tell over the internet - you'd be better off posting it as a job or contacting a local specialist to come out and have a look.

Bebi, If when you walk on the floor can you feel it move or bend in places. If you can then I would say that the tiles would need to be lifted and then floor removed and replaced with 18mm Ply Board and then re-tile. The other cause of tiles cracking is that uneven adhesive was laid and has air gaps under the tiles. Either way you need to remove the tiles to assure the wooden floor was laid correctly. Get a local Tiler to give you a quote for the work required. Bill
