Ply Bathroom Floor

[terrycoe1]

Hi I have 3 bathroom floors currently Lino over ply substrate recommendations on what to use over the top of the ply prior to tiling I'm thinking of a ditra membrane !? Any other suggestions

What tiles are you fixing and how thick is the ply...

 

[terrycoe1]

Just a standard ceramic or porc unsure of thickness if it's 15mm then ditra if it's less hardi!?

 

[White Room]

Is the vinyl being stripped off before tiling...

 

[terrycoe1]

Yeh Lino is coming up hadn't been glued just loose

I wouldn't ditra with porcs or ceramic on a small bathroom floor... 6mm hardie would be my preference.

Sweet ok how comes you wouldn't use the ditra !? If I havnt got the height then what would you reccomend !?

If it's 15mm ply then tile straight on it

Ditra I would use with natural stone, I don't know the thickness of your floor so in some aspects I'm surmising.

Is it chipboard, floorboards etc

Check the thickness of the ply first off ,you can tile straight onto it depending
