Can anyone help
A few questions I want to ask my builder, before we the tiles are laid
So far the builder has laid a underfloor heating system, water based, on kingspan, between a timber frame (on a solid concrete floor) - 50mm screed on top, then chipboard - I have been told by a few tilers that this could lead to the tiles cracking (due to the heat crumbling the screed and chipboard curling) - is this true? Also you should also use only plywood to lay the tiles on.
The reason why a 50mm screed was used and also the timber on the solid floor was due to the lack of height left (not enough room for 100mm kingspan 75mm of screed) - create a timber floor effect.
Would appreciate any help
