Hi,
I have searched the Forum Threads for previous thoughts on No More Ply and I think that I am ready to use it in a bathroom job, laying it on top of the existing Chipboard, which appears sound and to my inexperienced eye shows no signs of deflection. The advertising blurb for NMP indicates that 6mm NMP gives the same degree of stiffness, if that is an acceptable term, as 15 mm ply. This appeals because it reduces the height gain from the landing to the bathroom.
Does Hardibacker give the same amount of stiffness, therefore making it a suitable contender, or is NMP unique in that way.
Does NMP really offer that amount of solidness, and would the 9mm NMP offer an even more solid base to lay tiles onto.
Is there something which can measure the flex in a floor, I have read that 3mm in 400mm is acceptable, but how do you measure that or is it just a gift that comes with experience.
Thanks in anticipation.
