Hi AAm,
I will be laying a timber floor on a concrete floor and need to put it down on batons which I think will be about 25mm. The problem is that when I lay tiles in the kitchen that they would be lower than the timber floor, not desirable in a new house. I am considering laying cheap tiles under the good ones, can anybody see a problem with this or maybe have an easier solution?
Why do you "need" battens? You could go for a floating floor surely, then you wouldn't have to deal with such a difference in level between the two floors.
What type of wood is it? Is it solid, semi solid? I thought most of these would have been able to be floated. I floated over 100 sq. mteres of french oak, in a new build just before last Christmas. No problems at all!The floor cannot be floated according to the supplier, he said I could risk it but they would not give any guarantee. Can I float it?
Thanks Avns1s,
Its a solid walnut and it would save a lot of problems if I could float it.
What is the difference between putting it on batons and floating it? What are the possible problems?
I'm in a similar situation and I'm not prepared to float a solid wood floor as I've seen problems when it's done this way.
