[QUOTE="honeymonster, post: 581110"] Hi all, I have been reading up on all the good advice and guides here on this forum but still wanted to do a final check with peoples opinions and expertise if I could? I have put aquapanel up on the walls that will form the corner where the shower is based. The rest has WBP ply over the basins and green plasterboard on the walls up to the door. I have cut 18mm WBP ply for the floor which now replaces the old floorboards. QUESTION - Does the underside and edges need sealing ? I heard Acrylic paint should be used,if so is there any particular type or just that available through screwfix? I was then planning on fixing this to the joists at 20mm intervals with stainless screws and putting noggings along the joints. On this goes the 19mm former which takes up most of the room. The remaining area I want to take up using Marmox boards fixed to the plywood using dunlop tile on wood adhesive. I will tape and seal the joints with PCI Lastogum. As I want to lay UFH over the former and the rest of the floor I will use SPF to cover the mat on the former and then SLC on the rest of the floor. On this I will completely tank the floor and the 2 walls that form the corner where the shower is as well as about 8 inches up all the way around the walls using PCI Lastogum, and DUNLOP tanking kit (apparently made in the same BAL factory). SO....How does this plan measure up? My first issue is sealing the PLY floor underside and edges. I now can't find the post that said this was required, and wonder why this would be required? All advice and comments will be very welcomed. I will try and take some pictures of the project as it goes along. Many thanks in anticipation, Gary [/QUOTE]
