Hi All

I am now considering Trav instead of trav effect ceramic tiles for the bathroom project...!
Just a question its so heavy, are there any issue with peoples floors giving way.....lol....?
I am only using 20 sqm in a small room but it weighs a ton literaly......

Cheers.................:smilewinkgrin:

Sometimes extra noggins are fitted between the joists for extra support and reducing movement. A good excuse for replacing shabby floor boards too

Also take into account as to whether your wall substrate will support the travertine tiles..

what do you have..?
