Hey floor gods! What’s everyone’s action before screeding prior to lvt when there is cracks in a slab like this? The slab is about 4 years old and had carpet on it before, the kitchen in next room has ceramics and no movement seems to have occurred. My conclusion is this dried out in extreme temperatures maybe very cold? So won’t be privy to any more movement Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I wouldn't coz it's a fart on and No one can say how far it would go in Linier metres What if the crack is 100mm deep ?
I used Altro Resolve to fill some pretty major cracks on a job last year. Have been back a couple of times since and no sign of any movement. Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk
It's a fibre glass mesh you lay loose over the primed sub floor and screed directly over it When you spike roller the screed the mesh becomes imbeded in the screed and reinforces it so the screed isn't relying on the strength of the sub floor so isn't affected by cracks and weaknesses in the sub floor
Couldn’t you just use a gypsum based levelling compound instead then? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
You'd still have to do some kind of crack repair or crack bridge system or the crack can transfer though the screed and the product
Chase it out Prime Uzin 182 repair compound The the scrim tape (I forget the code) Then compound over the tape so it don’t rise when screeding then away u go Prime then screed Easy
