Versailles tiles - here in the UK many patterns are called Versailles I'm afraid - from a simple plait to the most elaborate pattern. We've got...
Hello and welcome mate.
Hi dsmart, looks lovely! Looks like you laid this directly onto the epoxy DPM, which I understand it is a bit unorthodox. I've just done the same...
No, just a beam - a large one though (think at least 50 x 50 cm). Walls don't need that much to crumble I think, if enough force is exposed to it...
I still think that on a full glue-down, for the floor to come anywhere near filling a 10mm expansion gap then the outer row of boards/blocks would...
If you put it to the test, and leave a tiny expansion gap then increase the air humidity you can wait for everything to come up ;-) Wood works -...
That makes sense. I wouldn't want to put this theory to test, but my guess would be that on a fully glued down wood-block floor you could get away...
Hi Tigger There are so many brands and products around nowadays it is getting harder and harder to know which one works best. We rely on the info...

Hi Dom Looking forward to those pictures! That discussion with the US bloke (think he even came from Canada) was years ago, he really went into...

The room including the floor is finally finished and, though I say so myself, it's looking lovely! Many thanks for the invaluable help and advice...
I think the standard solution is to remove it mechanically - ie with a scraper or an old chisel. Hard work! Some find that chilling the blocks in...
We normally recommend to throw blocks, tiles into the freezer. Makes the bitumen brittle and easier to chisel off. Never try to sand it off it...
'Fraid the detector would not stop beeping: nails in doorpost, nails in skriting boards, water pipes running over the joists instead of under,...
Talking about burglar alarm people: wires everywhere, criss-cross over the underfloor and straight next to door posts. Idiots! (And a SuperCut or...
Great info bladerunner.
Right you are! (a room where all walls meet in perfect angle must be absolutely rare here. Ton just installed a normal floor in an extension where...
