    so I laid some moduleo impress with karndean universal dry fitted and wet set on Hanson ply . The planks have shrunk in the kitchen but not the porch ,no direct sun hits the kitchen area Iv not been back to look at this yet as I’m actually on holiday .
    Anyone else used universal with moduleo ?
    I’m guessing drop in temp overnight
    Thoughts ?
    Not what you want to hear when on holiday

    Ive used Ke66 (universal) on Moduleo plenty of times without issues.

    No idea spacey only thing I can think of is possible leak but I’m sure she would notice something like that , need to try put this out my mind until back from holiday .
    If I decide to replace the whole lot I don’t know of another adhiesive I’d rather use to redo the job to be honest that’s the annoying part .

    Well don’t bother asking moduleo to help you. They are useless

    You won't need to use a different adhesive...Just need to lay it properly :D only joking pal.

    Were the planks for the kitchen left in a hot room overnight before you fitted them?probably not....

    They've taken 4 months to shrink so at a guess I'd say could be subfloor issue.
    Moisture test was done yes?

    Could be a few things really.
    Has she sent you a picture of the floor in its state?
    I've had it before where they've rang me panicking saying all the floor is coming up then arrive to see 2 plank corners slightly raised.

    Enjoy your holiday and worry about it when you get back, it's not the end of the world.

    Why didn’t you use their own adhesive? We’ve recently had to lift one and it broke my bully scraper. Couldn’t of been more overkill on adhesive

    Wet set on ps as recommended by moduleo. And keep the daylight out too that will fudge your floor right up

    Used 66 on nearly every Moduleo job I’ve done. No issues
    Was it a sunny day when laid. Sounds like the planks were warmer then the sub floor.

    Toss up between KE66 or an epoxy
