Looks great mate. What is the deal with expansion and contracting when sticking wood to underfloor heating? I want to do a similar thing as you've done here but I was going to let it float so that when the floor heats up it can move if it needs to?
@yesconstructionltd
@yesconstructionltd 15 күн бұрын
@@turtlehomes411 Thanks mate 😉 You need to use engineered wood, not solid. Solid will go nuts with the heat. It's advised to stick it on, especially if you are using small planks. The adhesive is super flexible and allows for the movement. It's like silicone but even more flexible. Don't glue the planks together (disaster) only underneath it. I have seen the floating floor lifting in the middle a couple of times in the winter. If you stick it on, it won't happen. On one job we used the luxury vinyl and it was floating and it's fine. I called the manufacturer and I asked. They have a technical department for answering those questions so if I was you, I'll give them a call. I hope it all goes well and I am more than happy to share anything I know so don't hesitate 😉

@@benjaminh860 Hi It's quite costly because it's a lot of work. In the video the house is after a demolition so everything is open and ready to work on. Imagine doing this in a habitable house, the mess and making good afterwards. Why do you want to remove the chimney on the roof but not inside? Is it in a bad condition? That is also costly.

@yesconstructionltd

Hi Thanks for engaging We had drawings to follow on this particular project, so we did what was prescribed. If you don't have structural drawings and specifications for the job, getting BC approval might be challenging. If you are doing the job without BC supervision and want to do it right, you should use the plates. They provide a perfectly flat surface for the steel to rest on, eliminating the possibility of the steel sinking and potentially cracking the chimney. If you do not have the plate, I suggest removing three layers of bricks below where the steel will rest and rebuilding it with engineering bricks. Leave at least 20mm space between the bricks and the steel, and pack it in with a drypack. You and I know that this will be sufficient and never collapse, but once again, I firmly believe in doing things by the book. This way, you will sleep better 😉 I hope I was of help.
