Hi, After laying bamboo flooring in my bathroom, I'm not sure if the pan needs to be screwed down or positioned on top of silicone or both. Any advice please, Tony

Gcol - the missus will agree to your request if you post a pic of your hairy builder's butt :D

Layed a new peice today and fits flush. Can't wait to get cracking with the floor tiles Tony :lol:

Yes, dpc seems to be fine. I hope I don't have to rake out complete mortar joints. I was hoping about 12-15mm.

Hi - the house I've just bought has had serious bridging problems for at least 25 years. This is because a paved patio was laid right along the back of the house bridging the DPC. I'm removing the patio slabs and digging out to 150mm clearance. The brick mortar below the dpc has the cosistency...

Tommy - cheers for the offer. I'm going to start a new post because I've made a pig's ear of this one :D Thanks Tony

980mm by 1700mm cut to size. The ridge is about 2mm. The ply is laid across the joists in two sections, otherwise I might have been able to plane 2mm off the joist or is that crazy man's talk. :P . So, the options are spend another 30 quid and do the job right or take my chances with feathering...

gcol - the shop is refusing to replace the dodgy peice so would you say it's possible to tile over the 2-3mm ridge or should I plane/sand out the ridge? Tony

Jason - Thanks for the information. Tony

gcol - I appreciate your advice. I can't answer why I proceeded to lay the WBP while knowing about the different thicknesses. It's the first time I've dome anything like this. They cut the peices in the yard and I paid a lot of dosh for it, so I guess it didn't occur to me that I would end up...

gcol - I ordered to peices of 18mm ply but one of the peices was slightly fatter that the other - about 21mm. I'm thinking it won't be too noticeable with underlay over the top. What are your thoughts? I don't want my floating wooden floor to be spoilt! Tony

Thanks Jason. Anyone know how to work out the permissable weight that newly skimmed walls can carry? Tony

Hi - layed two lengths of wbp in the bathroom, but due the extra 3mm thickness in one board I'm left with a ridge running down the middle of floor. Will underlay and engineered wood flooring cover the ridge ok or will I have to try and smooth/sand it out? Tony

Hi - which boiler would be most suited to run nine rads and provide the best hot water flow and value for money? I know nothing about combi boilers but I received to quotes and I don't know how to decide which one to go for. 1. Worcester 28i juniour 2. Vaillant ecoTec 831E [/list]

can post urls of larger pics if needed. Thanks again, Tony what a performance :cry:

All I can do is give the url, but I've compressed them to thumbnail size!!! http://himal.myphotoalbum.com/view_photo.php?set_albumName=album01&id=House_020 http://himal.myphotoalbum.com/view_photo.php?set_albumName=album01&id=House_009...
