    SLC - Fibreplan or Ultraplan rennovation screed?

    Guys, the price diff betwene these is quite large! Would the rennovation screed be ok for UFH on a cement backer board (backer board on 18mm ply screwed to joists) or should I use the fibreplan BAL fibrebase is also another option but still pricey! thanks Dave

My question is whether, having SLC'd the cable, I need to ensure that I don't have any voids between the top of the SLC and the underside of the tiles. I'm assuming that it's important to not...

    Slc

    Just a general question.. When tiling floors I tend to negotiate small deviations (-4mm over 1.8m) in subfloor adjusting how much adhesive as I think most of us do. How many of you guys just pour slc regardless just to give you the perfect level floor? You might think this would be an extra...
