    Default SLC on Weyroc?

    Just a quick one, I know tiling straight onto weyroc/chipboard is a no no. But what about SLC? i.e. could you lay ufh on weyroc, then slc and then tile? I presume there are the same issues with this as tiling straight onto it but just wanted to check?

    Cheers James

    Yeh I'm doing good, I have handed in my notice at my current job and I'm booked on at NETT to brush up on my skills and knowledge so all ready to go really. I've been passed a few potential jobs my way and I'm actually off to see one tomo, hence the question. The customer has a problem with raising the height too much so the usual overboarding would create problems.

    Its going to be end of Oct now before i'm running really, so if you need any help then

    overboarding with hardie backer board is your best option mate, it's only 6mm + a thin bed of adhesive to stick down on weyroc

    I put it to customers that it's ONLY 6mm extra, doesn't sound much if you put it like that.
