Good day everyone.
I am an enthusiasic amature and have been taking on board lots of advice form your excellent forum, but not contributed so far.
I am renovating my bathroom and plan to tile walls and floor with 600 x 400x 10.8 porcelian tiles. Floor is 18 mm chipboard on 100x50 joists, which is to be stiffened with extra noggins, overlayed with 6 mm Hardibacker board, to be glued & screwed. I plan to fit UTH with a screed. Walls are new 12.5 mm plasterboard.
I have never tackled these large beasts before, and I would like to know:
a) what is the best adhesive for gluing the backer board?
b)does the chipboard require priming?
c)is it best to prime the plasterboard?
d)which adhesive is recommended?
e)is there a recommended minimum distance between the UTH mat and the floor edge?
(A lot of questions!)
Thanks in advance guys
