@derekvinyard6324 3 года назад

Hey, thank you for all your videos! They've very professional and informative. I know that they take a great deal of time to make and we all appreciate them. I have a question regarding sealing the perimeter of a room. I took my walls down to the studs and put up new vapour barrier, along with a new 3/4" OSB sub-floor overtop of the old shiplap. There is a slight gap between the vapour barrier and the new sub-floor I was planning to fill with cement prior to self leveling. This would effectively seal the bottom of my barrier and the potential leak points in the old sub-floor in one step. How important is the foam edge acting as an expansion gap? Since my edges will be completely sealed by vapour barrier buried in cement. It seems easier to trowel in cement rather than go around filling every little crack with caulk

@MrYoucandoityourself 3 года назад

Hi Derek, yes, you can fill up with cement, no problem.

Hi Will, good questions! I didn't count how many minutes I mixed every bag, just until there are no lumps in the barrel. I have two different mixers - Dewalt and Collomix.

Hi, when slc dry , I cut foam flat with slc. Some foam left between slc and walls.

@Taliabalia04 2 года назад

Thank you for how much you help us DIYers out here! I am considering self levelling. I have dips and waves all over my chipboard floor, the deepest being 17mm. In one spot the floor bounces by 1-2mm where some boards meet, but can’t get to the underneath and don’t to take up as it may weaken the surrounding boards. Not sure if this means I can’t use leveller. Wondered whether laying a thicker ply, say 12mm would give the floor more rigidity to then level, but not sure how a thicker ply will behave being screwed over the bumps in the floor?

@MrYoucandoityourself 2 года назад

If your floor bounces, follow old nails or screw lines to put new screws to push you floor down. If there some empty spots where is plywood joint, need to cut som square hole for checking support underneath. Do you have stud checker?

@kylerrhys8733 3 года назад

@philindeblanc 3 года назад

Can this be left as a finished floor, I like the look...and I plan to do this on a concrete foundation...Since I like this color of self level, I prefer to use this brand model of concrete...I do like the troweled look, so maybe it takes on if I trowel a little. Are there any additives I can put to give it more strength? I know in regular concrete they put fiber, but is there anything for this leveling? Also, do you recommend using mesh over the crack areas, in case this helps the top layer flex vs crack at the same spot?.

@MrYoucandoityourself 3 года назад

Yes, you can use it like finishing floor, just have to use epoxy for finishing. For epoxy floor specially using ARDEX compound. Thanks!

@philindeblanc 3 года назад

@@MrYoucandoityourself Do they have low shine, or matt? I really dont want to use epoxy on top. What do you think? I used to have a microtopping in another location...if there was a problem with a little area, I mixed a bit of it and just applied some like spacle.

Awesome videos, love the channel. Big fan. Quick question. Can this self leveler concept be used over an entire second floor if i intend to add Lx Vinyl flloring on top? I'm in Texas and I was told that some structural engineers do not recommend alot of concrete weight added to the entire floor especially for tiling adds to much weight on second floor.

A couple questions, does this self leveler act as a moister barrier as well? Also will the flooring gun and flooring cleats/nails work with this? And what is the acceptable levelness? Like does it need to be exact center or slightly right or left fine as long as its not going over the line?

Also is a spike roller enough to spread the compound out Level or would I need a long straight edge?

@MrYoucandoityourself 2 года назад

Hello Carl, it’s hard to understand what the best way in your project. If your subfloor all the way slightly slope down , you can use tripods make level not all the way, just to that point where it start slope. And next day make final connection compound and wood subfloor with straight edge.

I have a tile job over OSB and need to pour a skim coat over the entire floor. "The last person put grout directly on the OSB and I gouged it taking up the old tile." I have cleaned and stripped the floor. Also screwed down and sealed everything. Today I applied Primer T over the floor but, Did Not Dilute the primer. I'm waiting till tomorrow for it to dry and pour the leveler. I'm wondering if I've messed up by not diluting the Primer T? Do you think the OSB will absorb enough undiluted primer for the leveler to stay put or will the leveler just crack and come up?

Yes, you can, have a look my last video, I explained what blade and grinder need for this type of job. Thanks!

I never thought to do that with a diamond blade. Hmm seems so obvious to me now.

@MrYoucandoityourself Год назад

Use a bigger roller

@MrYoucandoityourself 2 года назад

Bigger roller hard to wash in small place with limited water quantity. Thanks!

@@MrYoucandoityourself sure, but disposable rollers are cheep and save tons of water.
