bathroom floors

Hi can i tile strait on 2 floor boards

 

[Varley]

Here is where the debate begins. There are many tilers on here who state that they do and never have any problems assuming the floorboards are secure and the correct adhesive is used, however I for one never have done, I always overlay with backerboards to give more stability.

Same as Varley

Same as the chaps above:yes:

yes you can used timber flex adhesive and flexie grout

make sure floor is solid

 

[gonk31]

you can if you use a 2 part flexi as long as the boards are well secured, but don`t use the tubbed stuff for wooden floors as it has been known to take quite some time to go off, although the general opinion is always going to be to use an overlay then a rapidset flex addy

overlay with 6mm ply for me

BAL Fast flex 2 part adhesive.

It's fantastic gear and has never failed me. Make sure your boards are sound first, whatever route you choose.

(anyone seen the tubbed gear on TOPPS' website? Not for real surely?!)

this it is for real but like i say in my opinion it is this sort of adhesive that has been known to take a while to dry, deffo not suitable for porcelain or any natural stone imo
