    nobody recommends using with LVT's due to the joins in the membrane. It is to easy for a tile or plank to sit on the join causing the sheet to move and pull apart.

    However i have installed 100's of meters of LVT on the stuff. As long as you mark out where you tiles are going to drop and make sure you have half a tile going over the join you wont have a issue.

    But remember that you wont have a guarranty if something goes wrong.

    I would never install LVTs unless they are to be "stuckfast".Nice to see you back Steve not seen you at the local for a while?.
