[QUOTE="Tile Shop, post: 811613"] This is the greatest forum in the world EVER..... [Now thats the arse kissing out the way] I do occasionally find myself wandering of to diynot.com to see if I can offer my two pennies worth to people who might need it. Some of the advise given if you read through their tiling section is truly priceless. An example if I may: [B]A. Customer, 1st post[/B] "[I]Hi I'm in the process of deciding Wetherby to tile or lino my bathroom floor and need some help in deciding. Currently I have 22mm tongue and groove floor boards screwdriver into the joist. Each board is about 100mm wide I think. Do I still need to ply board the area and if so what size thickness would be sufficient. The tiled area would be approx 2 by 2.5 meters."[/I] [B]A. Customer, 2nd post[/B] [I]"Also would this adhesive be OK to use?" ***Image shown of Mapegrip D2***[/I] ***At this point he must have been out and bought some tiles and is in the process of setting them out.*** [B]A. Customer, 3rd post[/B] [I]"Hi I'm setting out the tiles and have a question regarding a small pieces just by the door. Will it be ok to tile this in with a narrow cut just by the door entry or should I pull all the tiles in and make a cut in a full piece and cut the others along the wall down too?" [B]A. Builder, Expert reply :)[/B] "Make sure all the existing boards are well screwed down, now just lay some 6 - 9 mm ply down, and remember to glue it down don't just rely on nails or staples. a nice coat of unibond and you're ready for tiling. make sure that you use flexi tile adhesive for wood flooring. good luck"[/I] 6-9mm ply.... NO Glue down.... NO Nails or Stables... NO Unibond.... NO Flexi Adhesive... YES Narrow cuts.... Failed to answer. Half a point for it not being wrong. Congratulations fine builder sir, you score a very professional 1.5 out of 6! Some I choose to correct if i'm in a sympathetic mood. Some I don't, but I can't feel guilty about that! I mainly only use it for amusement and giggles :) Am I a bad person? [/QUOTE]
