    Default Plastic Ply

    Hi All,
    Think about doing a job in block of flats have to overboard bathroom floor.
    To make life easier instead of humping ply sheets up several flights of stairs think about using this plastic ply. Wood floor fairly sound few screws required in some places to stop bounce.
    Anybody out there used it.
    Any problems found info makes it sound so easy.
    Just stick it down way you go.
    Thanks
    Pud

    it is a product developed by N&C I believe, and is actually called Plastic Ply. Claims to be able to replace 18mm ply and strengthen floors with a piece of plastic a couple of mm thick and is self adhesive........a touch sceptical myself........

    Hi,
    Yes it is a N&C product comes in a pack of 4 tiles each tile is 600mm x 600mm sq.
    They have a demo on their web.
    I am also a bit sceptical about it.
    How is a strip of plastic stronger than 18mm ply ???.
    Thanks for the input so far
