chape liquide

[Richardbk]

Hi all,

I need to lay a chape liquide of 6 cm over an extruded polystyrene floor onto which underfloor heating is laid - about 100m2. With the polystyrene we are using and the thickness it seems we are not required to use any reinforcing mesh

It doesn't look complicated so I'm planning on doing this myself with a couple of friends

I'd be grateful for any tips or techniques to get the best finish. Do we basically just rake it in and let it settle ? Also where is the best place to buy the ready mix?

thanks for any advice.

Richard

Richard there are plenty of video's on you tube so you can get the idea and techniques from there. Most of the big cement/concrete suppliers do it.
