Not when the floor in question was originally 3 rooms added at different times, with solid floors on three differing planes! I tried to take the edge off by laying 12o kilos of self levelling !!
Quite liking this 'wedge' system for uneven floors.... (Ingore the dire state of the rest of the room.....they only wanted the floor doing!!)
Mine is not to question the clients requirements....I am just a lowly tradesman.....(runs away, doffing cap!)
Looks like you've crack it Seriously though that room needs gutting Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
That ain't wallpaper @snotty .....that's original 1970's 6x6 wall tiles! I think the pattern is called 'Migrane'..
I saw these on a Facebook post the other day, 1 question. Do they leave voids in the adhesive below? If they don't they could very well make a tilling job i have to do much much better.
@Merlin Cat ...The white 'spacers' are like an inverted 'T' shape that sits under both tiles. When you slide the wedge in it makes the tiles the same height by lifting the lower tile to the same height as it's neighbour.... Once the adhesive has set you just take out the wedges and quite literally kick the top of the spacer and it snaps off....quite good fun! @paneuropaul I use a 10mm notched trowel and a slightly wetter mix than I would normally use. Helps the adhesive to 'stretch' when the tile lifts up....any big holes get the usual 'dollop' before the tile goes down. The only thing you have to watch is when you insert the wedge it can move the tile fractionally out of line, but as long as you check as you go along the system works fine. I've recently laid a floor in an old cottage that was all over the shop even after a 6mm thermal board had been laid. This wedge system help even things out nicely. Downside is the spacers can only be used once, and if doing a big floor you need a lot of wedges!

I wondered this too,you'd imagine if it pull the lower tile up it would leave a void with no adhesive on the tile Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
When I go to price a job these days the customer is under the illusion that they're checking me out for suitability, however this is not the case. I can no longer work for certain types of people. Luckily I have enough work to be picky.
Yes exactly- a wrong word here or a rubbish cup of tea will blacklist the customer and they'll have to get an inferior artisan, as I prefer the be called, to do their work.
I regularly refer to you as "that inferior artisan"... (Until I need you to sort out my bay (not bus))
