    Default cushioned floor??

    i'm supposed to be starting a job tomorrow, and the customer has just rang me to say when she has pulled the lino up there has been cushioned flooring down and it has been self levelled over!!!

    i'm not sure what to expect!

    if the floor has a bit movement to it ,what can i do?

    surely it cant move with self leveller over it can it?

    A surface is only as solid as the base it was put onto. If you have a compressable surface with a ridgid surface on top, then the whole thing can potentially move. Needs to come up me thinks!!
