tonyv Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Do they have such a thing as hardboard sheets here? I want to cover a damaged timber floor with something to level it up before laying covering. The only thing I can find is 5mm plywood, which is, perhaps overkill. Any other advice, please?

AnOther Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I've looked but never found it and in fact on my last trip back to UK I brought a couple of sheets back for someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sid Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Me neither, but you find sheets of the white stuff forming the backs of kitchen base units, so they must get it somewhere, or maybe (probably) the units are made elsewhere.I've just noticed that this new forum software no has a spell checker! That's one improvement then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex H Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 It's called 'isorel' here, but does not appear to be used for the same things as in the UK, hence not seen in the bricos.How about using thin mdf? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooperlola Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 O/h uses it a lot and assures me that that is the stuff. However, he tells me that often it is double faced over here (ie doen't have the bobbly surface on one side) so you might not necessarily recognise it for what it is.
