Slc or ditra mat to tile over UFH?
Hi I asked the Wunda technical department if I can just use a Ditra mat only and not the SLC. They said the Decoupling membranes are fine to use, they just don't form part of their normal recommendations. They advise that it would be best to bond the Ditra mat down with the recommended tile... -

Joining Ditra membrane and Jackoboard
Hello guys, I'm doing a wetroom and will be using Ditra Heat Duo membrane for the UFH. I looked at Kerdi Boards for walls and Kerdi LTS for the shower tray but these are double the price of for example Jackboard so I thought of using that on walls and shower tray instead but my question is how...- djkprojects

Ditra mat or not under floor tiles on ground floor?
So, on the ground floor there is a wet underfloor heating system. It is using pipes that were installed into grooved ProWarm boards. On top of that is about 4cm of concrete. The current install then has floor tiles which had the adhesive directly on the concrete. For other reasons, all the floor... -

When I notched my joists and set my presloped pan, I've ended up flush with the existing wood subfloor. As such, now if I put any hardi board on top of subfloor, the transition to the...- Spbeatpoet

Skim Coat and Patch product vs Thinset for flattening floor prior to Ditra?
I'm preparing this floor for tile. I had screwed down an extra layer of 5/8 plywood but have left it off near the edge of the room because it jumps about 1/2" in elevation near the perimeter. I've filled in most of this gap now with a patching compound (Custom Skim Coat and Patch.) Now I just... -

Do you need to run Ditra right to the edge of the room? Thinking of leaving a gap to deal with a high perimeter.
I've got a room with a two-layer plywood subfloor that is fairly flat (not level) but the floor ramps up at the perimeter fairly sharply. I'm going to be using Ditra for the installation (only for uncoupling - not worried about waterproofing). Rather than trying to raise the entire floor to... -
