Sorry, no photos....

I have today been and taken up the tiles, UFH and 6mm ply. I noticed there was slight deflection in the floor so decided to remove the chipboard floor and replace with 25mm ply. The joists underneath are those 'I-beam' joists which comprise of two lengths of 3x2 CLS bridged with a vertical strip of 12mm OSB Sterling board.

I am going back tomorrow to nog between the joists where possible, and intend on boarding it with 25mm ply, before laying the UFH. I then intend on using a flexi SLC on top of UFH before tiling onto with Nicobond Rapid Flex ady.

Is there anything else I need to do to prevent me having to rip it all up again?
