    Default some sort of floating floor ?

    Hi folks

    went to look at a job for a customer who i am already doing work for,
    they lifted the laminate in the kitchen so i popped round to look. bloody hell. it looks like 50 mm of polystyrene with just 6/8mm of uniclick chipboard. nightmare.

    they are desperate to get it done and i kept telling them no chance and to make it worse there didnt seem to be any joists to screw down a ply . just poly and chipboard. im not doing it , but wht would you guys reccomend.

    at the min im reccommending polyflor camaro or karndean.

    cheers guys

    Stick the Marmox down with SPF and tile direct to it with SPF.
