i'm surprised there havent been more votes for the Mapei waterproofing kits - judging by the amount we sell every week !

 

[Daz]

Hmmm...

Ardex or Mapei on walls but Tilesafe on floors or plywood walls.

Not sure who I should vote for Dave!

S**t you're fast. Were you in "The quick and the dead"?

The dread Grumpy PCI 4 me

 

[Cliff Anger]

We sold 580 wetroom waterproofing kits last week ......the 3 of you using Mapei must be doing an awful lot of work !

 

[PaulBAL]

Cliff I think you may have to check your numbers..... it's actually 2 unless Mapei have a contracting arm as well :yawn:

 

[robbo]

Bal seems to be the leader once again....

see thats it, alot of tanking systems have that fibreglass kit with it, PCI has rubber matting that cannot be penetrated, not only does it have the rubber matting BUT it has 2 4x4inch square rubber mats with circles cut into it that you stretch around the pipes for the hot cold shower taps for a tight seal, you dont get that with WP1, the rubber paste you paint on the wall with wp1 is too thick and bumpy, the PCI in contrast is like painting walls with normal paint, it is fool proof.
I would prefer to have rubber matting going along my joints than a fibreglass matting

i am doing a job at the moment and the customer got a SPECIALIST in to do the tanking it did make me laugh i have been using tankinging products for years and use pci or a company called ALFIX which is danish .the SPECIALIST charged £1000 which the stupid customer happily paid this specialist didnt tape round the perimeter of the room{wall to floor joint} but to be fair did make a very neat job of what he did do i am thinking of giving up tiling and becoming a tanking specialist as the money starts at £1000 per day lol

i hope you at least put your price up.. he has obviously more money than sense, and for £1000 i would take my time and make a pretty job too
