    levelling systems

    This may sound controversial. These systems remove a lot of the skill from our trade, anyone can use them in guessing and Prob get great results. Where does that leave the true craftsmen in our trade?? This really is the great leveller (unhappy face)

    Lash clips and riamonde levelling systems

    Anybody used the riamonde levelling system,I have used the lash clip ones but it hurts your fingers after a while,thinking of going the painless way,or do I stick to doing it without either to keep the cost down as you can spend £30/£60 a standard size bathroom,for the clips

    UFH and Ditra matting

    I have worked for a tiling company that installed UFH, the Warmup type, over Ditra matting. However, there seem to be views that doing so is not a good idea....the theory is that the wire heats up and melts the Ditra??.........could anyone enlighten me on this?
