uncoupling

Hi everyone, I'm just looking for some advice regarding preparing a floor with piped ufh. It's a full ground floor. Approximately 100m2 split between seven rooms including the hallway. 1000x215 porcelain throughout. Piped ufh system. I've been advised it'll be screeded with Mapei Topchem...

Looked at an outside job, a garden path leading to the front door of the property, it's cement/concrete & years old with only 2 cracks on it that look like they have been there for years. Im wanting to put down an uncoupler but what's the best for an outside job? I could probably get away with...

A have a flood damaged property to price some large format stone work for........... Some of the rooms will be brand new timber joists and P5 chipboard. I will fit uncoupling membrane but, can/should I go straight onto the P5 with the uncoupling membrane? The book says yes fit the uncoupling...

I have used uncoupling mats before, but not extensively. It's only maybe the last 18 month or 2 years that my local tile shop has stocked them. When do you personally use an uncoupling mat and when don't you? Materials and substrate.. I understand what lateral movement is, but I have seen...

I have two floors to tile, this one, 2m and another one in main bathroom about 3m, same but with a bath instead of shower. I've got no more ply down, I'm putting Ufh down and levelling it. This ones having 300x300 porcelain on diamond, checkerboard. Next door is having wood plank look tiles, not...

I am a customer not a tiler! My architect wants to lay limestone tiles directly on to the screed which is a sand and cement mix with the UFH pipes in it. This is laid on a solid concrete base. The screed has SBR and some fibres in it. My worry is that the limestone tiles with all their natural...

Hi guys, have not got round to tiling the bathroom and kitchen floor and was wondering how high the finished tile height will be once completed? Tiles are 9mm thick and I will be using the Schluter Ditra as recommended. Jimmy

Hi All. I need a hand with pricing a job please. A 130m2 of 300mm x 300mm porcelain tiles on a heated concrete floor in 4 different rooms. That isn't a problem pricing wise,but I could do with a hand pricing,laying 130m2 of uncoupling membrane and 80 linear metres of skirting tiles.(labour...

Perhaps one for @SchlüterSystems themselves to answer. When was ditra first made and used? Is that tiling job still down? Was it the first of its kind? And just one for the hell of it - what was your first pets name and the name of your first street? (we get your 'acting' name then don't we...

41 msq Porcelain, over water fed in screed ufh, I told the customer it will need a uncoupling mat, but they have asked me to go ahead without it, will it be ok, or should I refuse the job. Any advice will be appreciated.

Evening All. Couple of photos as know there appreciated. Looked at different rollers in the UK market to speed up laying Ditra and also to reduce the strains on my knees. Ended up purchasing this Karl Dahm roller £95.00 posted from Germany and arrived in 4 days. Usual Germany quality...

I have been drooling over about 10 pages of the ''post your work'' thread and I am wondering when is it ok NOT to use Ditra when not laying UFH? Emaple 1: Concrete floor, I put down SLC... Can I then tile straight over? Eample 2: Floor boards (Stable), I then ply or thermo board... Can I then...
