nod Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 I’m busy for the next two weekends tiling the four bathrooms My wife helped me with the matting on the last one and decided to do a couple of rooms today Nice neat job I’ll have to show the tilers that work for me I can’t remember them sponging all the joints She’s used 90 m2 yesterday and today Another 110 m2 for her to do next weekend 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used Ardex AF 200 plus to stick my Ditra down. I wasn't very impressed with either the coverge or the efficiency. I presume you use tile adhesive ?

I bought some of that stuff too, and forgot about it, so used the same adhesive as what I used for the tiles on top of the mat. Seems to have worked a treat.

Seems to have worked a treat. Yes Ditra is nearly -£200 per 30m2 Ardex is for timber floors 3 mil notched trowel Expensive But bombproof My wife stuck this down with flexi tile adhesive 5 mil notched Couldn’t wait for me I normally pay my tilers a fiver m2 But she’s getting nothing for jumping the gun 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
