Re: Hall of shame....

Tried this earlier in the week but couldn't get pics to upload. Hope it works this time.

Ripped up a Trav floor that cost the customer a £1000.00 4 months ago and took my apprentice 20 minutes to strip.

Floor was made up of, t&g floor boards covered with Plastic Ply, with 12mm Travertine installed using a 5mm trowel and grey adhesive (which was at least flexible)

Re-done using 18mm ply over floor boards, with Ditra Matting. Then tiled using a 660 x 330m Italian porcelain
