Building regs will need to be involved yes but your builder sorts this out

Yea the block work is there to build off already. I’m not sure about the insulation in the floor though.

Hi there. Have you got a haddenham house type? We just used the existing floor as there was a dpm under the screed. Not to sure if it was insulated though. These new houses are built on block and beam so not in direct contact with the ground. We are having laminate put in the conversion so an...

I’ve had the same with my outdoor porcelain slabs. Manhattan grey I used. I followed instructions exactly. Had a technical person come out and then analysed it to no explanation. Basically I have come to the resolution Mapei is crap in lighter colours. Basically had to grind it all out and use...

Has anyone got any advice on this at all?

It’s 12mm laminate with a 5mm underlay. I’m sitting hear searching the internet. The only 35mm bar I can see is laminate to carpet. Do you think I could use one of these thresholds and knock the spikes flat that are supposed to go into carpet?

But as I cut the transition bar wood will be visible? Sorry to sound thick

Yea this one is a 3 in 1 that snaps into a base. But unfortunately too deep. hmmm edging cutter is beyond my capabilities I think lol.

I can only see thinner thresholds for laminate to carpet. Or am I missing something here. I wanted to get them first as I don’t know how much space to leave if I was to find thinner ones. I’m a little stumped on this, that’s why I asked the question

Hi there, I hope some of you experts can help me out. Any advice would be much appreciated. I will be laying laminate in the next few days in the hallway. I have undercut all architrave and skirting is all off. My problem is I ordered some thresholds with the floor as i need to go around 3...

I know I could feather it out with easi fill but I don’t think you can use easi fill thicker than 6mm can you?

Just like to fill that are out but it’s a bit too much for multi finish I’m guessing. Wondering if I could fill it out with bonding and then smooth it out with a easi fill or something similar? Your advice is much appreciated.

Not the greatest photo but it down by where the skirting will go there is about a 10mm bow on the finishing. When skirting is on it will look quite bad.

Hi guys, I hope someone can help. I had some plastering done by my builder. He left it smooth but on 1 of the walls there is a bow out by about 10mm. Due to other problems I have had with him I told him to leave the job. I just basically want to fill out that 10mm bowed board. It’s about 500mm...

Well I just wanted to thank you for you feedback so far. I think I may contact building regs as they passed it off and I paid for them to do a job.
