[QUOTE="Slippery, post: 989154, member: 49759"] 1. T&G chipboard flooring needs replacing with 18mm ply - Current state of the T&G chipboard is unusable from water damage. Do I go with 2.4m x 1220mm or 1.2m x 610mm boards? Chipboard wants replacing with chipboard, same size (2.4x600), glue battens all around the perimeter to glue the edge of the new board down or it will squeak 2. Two walls have been plastered over cinder block - Should I repair the walls with thistle hardwall, then fix concrete backer board or remove the plaster and fix concrete backer boards directly to cinder block? I would just stick wedi(cement faced, not solid board) all over any rough surfaces 3. Two stud walls have two layers of plasterboards....no idea why and i don't want to know either. The stud wall is quite thin. I've started to remove the damaged first later of plasterboard that's been stuck to first layer with mortar....😩 Would it be just as easy to fit a new board? this is ready to set tiles after being primed or tanked if it's in a wet area. As I said, I would prefer wedi boards to solid cement although if the floor has any spring, use those, screwed and glued to the subfloor. [/QUOTE]
