    Default floor

    Could anyone help, got a floor to tile approx 50m, floor is part concrete part floor boards part chipboard. would normally use flexi and floor adhesive but it would be a much more stable floor if i could board it out first. Is there a sheet material i could screed to the concete floor and screw to the wooden floor, any help muchley appreciated.

    Can you not use backerboards on the timber areas and then carry the level through onto your concrete, alternatively you could screed from the boards onto the concrete to save money.

    Between the screed and wood would put a controlled joint
