little uneven

Post by haydengoy »

Hi all,
I have laid by advise 6mm far eastern ply for putting my underfloor heating on so the heat up time is less, but many people have now said that it may not be good enough so i purchased some of them backer boards to lay the underfloor heating on. but after looking at part of the floor i've got a little slope in one corner. i need to gain about 5-10mm. I've glued and screwed the floor down now so i cannot lift it up whats the best way of doing this? should I just build the floor up when tiling we flexi-tile adesive or build it up before i lay the boards with something?

This is in my kitchen and the kitchen is in and fitted.
I'm also not going to take the ply up as it will leave a huge mess on the floor and doult very much with the amount of glue that down it will ever come up this is well fastern down and fixed.

any advise welcome

Who suggested Ply ::b

Whatever you do, you have to avoid air pockets.

I would have thought the best plan now would be a floor leveling compound, but see what the pro's have to say.

First things last, what 's the original floor? Suspended timber?
