Discuss Travertine-UFH=Decoupler? Aparently NOT.. in the UK Tiling Forum area at TilersForums.com.
I've never saw it in TG and when I've asked about decouplers they have never heard if them.
Others may have had better luck.
I still cant beleve theres tilers out there still not using decouplers for jobs it would clearly benifit.
Just went to see a domestic Travertine job. I was the 6th tiler to see job so hed had a lot of info already. Its 50m2 of module travertine layed over the ground floor of a property running through 5 rooms.
It has wet ufh then chipboard and 15mm ply in place. So I recomended laying dural over ply and fixed with keraflex then laying tile onto bed of keraflex using half round flooring trowel and flexible grout, Reconed it take around 6 days start to finish.
But my price was more expensive than others because id priced in decoupler which at £9m2 makes a difference. I explained that due to there being a wet ufh system and laying a natural tile onto wooden sub that the dural would allow lateral movement of sub without stressing tile and grout. But he said none of the tilers had heard of or mentioned it apart from one of them, the most expensive one had heard of it or knew what it was...
Am I way off or what:mad2: ?
