Self leveller?
Hi,
I have been doing a recce of the floor I will soon bs tiling. I need to use self leveller. Around the radiator pipes there is a 10mm gap with foam with gaps around it. How do I stop the leveller from going into these gaps as I assume it will affect the leveller?
Thanks

Re: Self leveller?
Stick some tape around the pipe if it's copper, slc is cement based and can eventually eat at it the pipe...

Re: Self leveller?
i use aluminium tape to stop the slc from running away, e.g. under the bath or past the threshold.

Yeah cover the pipe. Cement corrodes copper so that's a start. For the gap run a bead around it or fill it first.
