leveling

Hi We had self leveling compound laid about a week ago by our builders in our shower room and through to our kitchen/diner, i`ve been cleaning today and i`ve noticed cracking and breaking at the edges near the patio doors. It was laid onto plywood boards (in the kitchen area) , concrete in the...

Hello, I've recently started renovating our kitchen/dinner. We've had a new concrete slab poured and it appears that the builders have put a tamped finish on it. They used a rack to spread it out and get it level 'by eye'... Due to this, I cant determine how level the floor is and how much...

Hi All Looking for some tips on mulitiroom leveling. As it is it looks like the kitchen has the highest point with the floor dipping into the utility and then into the hall again dips. I'm wondering how others tackle these jobs. The kitchen will need a liquid dpm so my usual way of drilling...

Hi Guys, First off, sorry for my bad grammar. I'm from Sweden and english isn't my native languege. :) I'm about to install limestone in size 300xfalling (falling=300-700mm) in a hallway. The limestone is 100% flat on the back. The under floor is 12 month old concrete. In sweden there is an...

Hi everyone! I've been reading levelling system old posts and have a few questions in relation to some points. Someone said that PLM or Mustang would leave scratches in high polished or lacquered stones, also it was said sliding systems as RSL could mark some stones. I have digital glazed...

Ive to tile 2 floors that are in 1 room with a dividing wall half way across the middle however im in a tricky spot and with floor levels. Its an old house and floors where in a bad way. In one room ive grinded it down all flat and near level as i can get it. Theres also an inch step into the...

Hi all, What do you charge per sq.m ? or you do day /hour rates? Have done 130 sq.m a week ago and send invoice. Floor was only up to 6mm in high difference, but client wanted it perfect. Just want to see if I was not too cheap.... Thanks

Absolutely furious with some cowboy builders who are completely taking the biscuit. They've not done near as much as they should have on any given day and are holding up the whole show. And their work is shoddy as heck. I mean they mustn't know how to use a level and clearly haven't the...

I need 1 mm thick for 20 mm marble, any leveling system does that? The client wants just 1 mm joints.

I am installing 6x24" (152mm x 610mm) wood look porcelain tile in an approx 200 sq. ft. (6096mm) room. Rectified tile, remarkably flatter than some 'long' LFT's I've seen. I had someone install 5/8" (15.875mm) plywood over the slatted subfloor. He told me the floor was pretty flat using a 7'...

I have 3 bags of 500 bases for sale I'm open to offers as I can't get along with them

Hi All, As I'm going to be embarking on my 1st ever tiling job (23 sqm) , I thought I'd better get a tile leveling system (My wife would kill me if I botch the job). It seems that Raimondi is very well rated. I've seen the following kit: Kit RLS: Raimondi Levelling System -...

I'm considering using a tile levelling system with porcelain tiles 600mm x 300mm on both the walls an floor. The system I intend to use is the tile lash copy type (wedges and plastic clips) however I can only find ones with grout line spacing of 1.5mm, Is that too thin for floor tiles which I...

Got a job next week with one wall having a fair convex bow in the middle-ish of the wall. Usually I would level/feather with rapid cement based tile adhesive using my feather edge etc but the question is - what is the max depth per layer when leveling using rapid set? Am I correct in thinking...

It seems a lot of people favour the rls anti lippage clips or strap does anyone who has tried this system and also another system think it is better than the other. I have tried lash clips ,rubi and genesis.

Hi all, i have a small job to do its a passageway around 3 metres x 1 metre wide across the width its around 3/4 of a inch out of level what be best to level it just self leveling compound or screed , and hopefully tile next day cheers

Hi, My tiler has taken up old tiles in our conservatory but some of the screed has come up from the UFH and needs levelleling before tiling. He's working on the rest of the house and has not come to a conclusion on the levelling. Picture below. Initially we talked about making up new screed...

Today I've bin on a travertine bathroom using 600 x 300 which range from about 10mm to 12mm and my go to clips (block level) just can't deal with the difference in thickness so I'm back to the good old days fitting with standard spacers do u know of a system other than MLT which can deal with...

Has anyone tried the new Sigma levelling system yet? I've been quoted for it and it seems pricey.

Hi Guys, what self leveling compound you prefer to use over electric floor heating? want to avoid the slightest chance of crack on the floor,need enough opening time and prefer fibre based compound. Substrate is cement board over ply done by other contractor thanks
