Nick8310 Posted February 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 It's mainly known as safety flooring amongst people and personally I don't. Mainly because I specialise in domestic flooring and safety floors are normally for commercial purposes e.g. Hospitals. That said I know how they work if you have any questions I could answer for you. Nick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rimfire4969 Posted February 3, 2015 Report Share Posted February 3, 2015 Question for you then. One off my older shower blocks on my campsite has a concrete floor with very little if any damp proof. We normally have vinyl down on it which lasts about 2 years. My newer blocks all have welded vinyl, but my flooring guys down here will not touch the old block due to the damp in the floor. Any advice? I know the best answer is to replace the floor but that is not happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, ****. **** the rooms with the quarry tiles will be fine to go over them although if the subfloor is a little unstable I would recommend you screed it before hand to give you a level work space however the wooden floor with vynl tiles I would recommend that you ply the floor with a thick ply 18mm and up to ensure that there is as little movement as possible so the grout won't crack over time. Hint: Make sure that if you get a stone tile that it's not porous otherwise liquid like tea or coffee if spilt can stain the stone, this can easily be fixed though by sealing the stone once it's been laid but this will change the colour slightly like applying a clear stain to oak would bring the grain out so test it before you do so on a scrap piece hope this helps.

I know the best answer is to replace the floor but that is not happening. As you say the best way to deal with this is to replace the floor. However if the damp is as you say minamal then you may be able to apply a liquid DPM before fitting a welded vynl to do this you will have to make sure the surface of the concrete floor is visably dry this can be done by putting in dehumidifiers until dry ish then you will have to apply FBall F77 to the concrete floor then when this is dry you will have to apply Fball P131 neat to the floor as a primer then you will have to put a finishing screed over that recommended you use Fball stopgap 300hd and apply about 3mm thick when dry you should have a floor which you could lay anything on and not worry about damp. That said it will probably cost as much as getting builders in to replace the builders screed. Anymore questions just ask. Nick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FBall two part DPM is awesome, however the due to the total cost I would probably get the builders in and get it replaced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case I think I will get vinyl put back down and replace it every 2 or 3 years. Thank you for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pudbas Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 rimfire if its expense thats worring you if the floor is flat use altro everlay its a fiberglass sheet which is loose laid then your vinyl is stuck to that.
