On the label it says add 1 part P131 to 4 parts water for absorbent surfaces and undiluted to unabsorbent surfaces. Would it matter applying it neat to 6mm ply? Ant

Cheers matty. I think I will go for ring shank nails. These screws are getting knackered before I even get them fully sunk into the ply and end up hammering them in anyway. Yes I will check. I'll phone them tomorrow - I don't want another cock up he he. Thanks Ant

Hey Matty, Cheers again Contected F-ball. I have got Stopgap 700 Flex with P131 neoprene primer to match. 52 quid in total. Going to put the plywood down now. I take it you mean straight out the bottle when you say apply P131 Primer 'NEAT'. Cheers Ant

Hey Matty, Got the rest of the screed up. I flew through the last part. I used a 24v Makita with hammer only action and a compatible sds plus bolster type tool to take the rest up and they flew up. Not only that, very little dust to. So there's a way to let others know who cock up like me...

Ok no problems, Matty. I will use Clauk. I can get some tomorrow. Being a plumber I thought fitting a bathroom was easy. I didnt realise the tiling would cause so many problems. Well the floor anyway. Cheers Ant

Cheers again, Matty. Yes I give a thought to taking up the chipboard but it would cause to many problems. It is very stable and I cannot notice any bounce whatsoever (It is in the coner of the house upstairs so I can imagine it should be solid there. I personally think it is solid so thanks...

Hey Matty. Sorry for the delay. I dont like having the computer on while doing the grinding. The computer has a transparant window in it and all the dust gets sucked into the fan and is then visible. Yes the grinder has worked a treat. I have done about two thirds to three quarters now and...

Cheers matty. I have gone for a grinder and I am making great progress. I have done about a third in one and a half hours with breaks. going to clean up now and have a proper break. Cheers again Ant

hi all, again. This screed aint flying off at all now. it is coming off bit by bit. any other suggestions Cheers Ant

Matty WOW I have cause a right argument here. I have got up a third of the srceed now but still going. Just wondered is 25mm ply not to thick. As like you said, once you have the screed and tiles (9mm) on top you would be creating a small step into the landing. PS No it isnt a floating...

Mattysupra, You are a superstar. I will let you know how it goes. Many thanks for your help. I am sure you have saved me a few hundred quid down the line somewhere. Im getting started now. Cheers again. Ant

Ok ill do it again. I am going to get my work gear on. I would appreciate it if you could tell me what to use to get the screed up. Any tricks of the trade :wink: Many thanks for your help. I suppose doing it this way I will have confidence it being done properly. Cheers Ant

Many thanks for your swift reply. Just so you know I used PVA prior to screeding. Would this eliminate problem 2 of your last post? The area screeded in the bathroom is 1800mm by 1400mm. Would this small space be a problem? How would u recommend lifting the screed? The first batch went...

Go on tell me what I have done wrong and what the aftermath is if I was to carry on Thanks Anthony

Hi. Many thanks for your reply. I used Febflor Plus self leveling screed. What it is, the chipboard floor in the bathroom is arced so to speak and it dips about 10mm over a 600mm level (there must have been joist slightly higher when the house was built and they have nailed down the chipboard to...

Hi. We are currently doing the bathroom up and laying porcelain tiles on the floor but have found the floor not level by approx 10mm over 600mm length. We have PVA bonded the floor and layed screed - we had to put a second coat on top of the first but the second coat was a lot runnier - is...
