    Aqua panel onto floorboards

    Is this the Knauf aquapanel 6mm? Im guessing so - if thats the case its very similar to Hardie Backer at 6mm thick but I have found it a bit brittle so be careful when moving it around. Make sure you screw the chipboard down well at 200mm intervals and then glue and screw the aquapanel on in...

    Grind down tiles to get rid of lip page?

    I sympathise Alan.. - I found myself in a similar position recently and I did the repairs under a written confirmation that there was no guarantee of long term success and pointing out the errors of the previous fitting so it would be clear the client could have no claim against me. If you are...

    The installation looks great! Did you use a tile levelling system to get them this flat or was it just good base preparation ?

    a mosaic swimming pool film

    Thanks for that Diamond- is it easier to use a 4mm float or is 6mm ok.? I find the thicker the adhesive the more the mosaic slips?

    Unsure how to fix tiles to this substrate

    I have seen underneath another tile I have lifted that it is the chipboard floor underneath. In this case i can see on one side 6mm ply then UFH then tile, in the middle there is nothing but the join of the chipboard (which is why the tile cracked i guess) and on the other side is the impey...

    Unsure how to fix tiles to this substrate

    No - The tiles have been stuck directly onto chipboard in some areas , over 6mm ply in others and over the Impey membrane in others. Recipe for disaster.

    Unsure how to fix tiles to this substrate

    I would agree - the only problem is that he has 4 wetrooms so big bucks - but maybe nice for me! In the meantime though how can i fix tiles to that black stuff? Flexible adhesive like rapid set ?
  27. H

    Unsure how to fix tiles to this substrate

    Your absolutely right P4ulo and all the wetrooms are the same. I think the black rubbery stuff is an attempt to keep the chipboard dry ! The worst thing is that it has underfloor heating as well so eventually they will have major problems.
