Hi,
I've just joined having recently had a two story extension completed, the builder has done pretty much everything I asked him to do so now I have a large empty space with a nice new 100mm concrete subfloor.
On top of this the plans show 1200 Visqueen then 75mm Celotex then 500 Visqueen then 75mm screed which seems to make sense.... ish!
In the extension I need to build two internal stud walls to break the space up into a hallway and a utility room. I'm happy enough to do this but I need to know when I can do it..... I would like to do it before the Celotex and the screed so the electrician etc. can get going but if I do then surely I will puncture the Visqueen when I fix the floor plate to the concrete floor and I assume this isn't good? On the other hand should I fix the wall to the finished screed bearing in mind this is on top of Celotex?
Any advice would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Paul
