Hi. I have purchased approx 3.5m2 of ufh, the cable being of the ribbon type. Can the matting be cut to fit the room (bathroom) and the ribbon cables routed accordingly. Every instruction I have looked at does not seem to show this type of UFH matting being cut to fit. I hope i haven`t bought...

Hi Guys. I am laying a mat system of UFH and was wondering what is the best way to mark out the floor for tiling with the matting covering the floor. Also I have read you can tile straight onto the mat but this sounds a bit messy. If a SLC is recommended which is the best. I have a 9mm ply...

Hi Not really a wetroom question but more about tanking products- went to get a BAL WP1 kit - ended up with the Homelux matting and BAL Rapidset courtesy of Topps Tiles (long story) 4mm notched trowel to apply adhesive and pushed matting well into the adhesive bed - left it overnight and the...

I am using SPF (Nocros rapid flexible addy) to fix travertine to Ditra matting, but wondered if its best to use some Bal Bond SBR before fixing the tiles? :)

Hi guys, going to be putting the Ditra Matting down for the first time next week and was wondering what to stick it down with. I've seen the Ardex AF200, but wasn't sure whether to get some ordered or whether i could use the Ultra Rapidset i'm going to be laying the tiles with to lay the matting?

Hi folks, I am looking at a job doing wet rooms. I have used the WP1 before, pretty straightforward I thought. Any people have any comments on the use of the matting? One question I have is what adhesive can you use with it, does it have to be flexible cement based? Or could you use tub...
