Good site proper, Do you use Marmox all the time or only on certain applications

I use that or no more ply mate. But the marmox is a top quality product and i would say its the best hybrid out there at the moment. Its not cheap but they have reduced the price to about £8 per board. So i will more than likely use it all the time now. easy to Fix and also helps keep the tiles warm even when under floor heating is not used
