    Tiling over acoustic mat PLUS heating mat...

    Hello all. I am planning to lay acoustic mats in my flat and need to manage the build-up so I don't lose too much room height. Bathroom plan • Existing wood sub-floor - 20MM • Acoustic mat (stiff rubber composition) - 15MM • Tile backer board - 6MM • Heating mat - 2MM • Adhesive bed - 6MM •...

    Adding frameless (no handrail) glass balustrade to existing stairs...

    From speaking with several glass balustrade suppliers, 15MM laminated glass appears to be what is typically recommended for this use case. Providing an appropriate channel system is used (e.g. Sabco), then it all comes down to whether the channel system itself can be adequately fixed to the...

    Adding frameless (no handrail) glass balustrade to existing stairs...

    I think my question was clear: will the existing stringer "accommodate safely" the channel system needed "to secure the glass balustrade". Obviously the balustrade has to be strong enough to do what it is supposed to do. Wondering if there is a London-based company who might help with...

    Adding frameless (no handrail) glass balustrade to existing stairs...

    Hi. £3k just for glass, channel system, and any other kit needed. Separate budget for installation as have other work to be done to the stairs (creating a new landing towards the top to accommodate entrance to a loft extension). Have someone doing work in the house already but may not use them...

    Adding frameless (no handrail) glass balustrade to existing stairs...

    Hi all. I am renovating my home and I would like to replace wooden spindles and handrail on existing staircase with a frameless glass balustrade. Finding a supplier to make the glass panels (c15MM thick, laminated etc) seems straightforward, but I am trying to figure out whether a 'channel...
