Exhibition Floor

[Pebbs]

My minds working a bit slow this morning. 200m2 of slate to be laid and its all got to be pulled up again 6 weeks later. Can anyone remember the name of that free floating membrane that enables us to do this?

I need more coffee, I cant remember the name of it at all.

Pebbs use a carpet, axminster is best, lay the tiles on top and simply lift the carpet in 6 weeks, job done!

silly question now, but what happens to the tiles after they've been taken up after the exhibition?

Any freebies going? :smilewinkgrin:

Any uncoupling membrane will work.. just roll it out and tile on it.

Done dozens of em m8 we use roofing membrane works a treat. Overlap joints by an inch and away to go, remember to alow enough bed to be able to tap tiles in as its a beach if you have to re-lift. If its NEC or somewhere get a roll of doublesided off the carpet fitters..........

tut tut, never heard of recycling :lol:

just stick em down with dispersion adhesive

single wound polythene sheet.....that would not rip up when wet. I have seen the wall paper idea used in tile showrooms a few times. Seems to work ok there but is usually very small bays I suppose.

I have used a weed barrier cloth which you get from garden centres relatively cheap and easy to tile onto or you could use black builders paper this doesn't rip when wet and cost affective too
