Picture
a typical situation, 15 m² of existing vinyl
tiles on dry concrete to be replaced with a vinyl design floor.
The
specification says, remove old floor-coverings, remove any
loosened old smoothing compounds, remove old adhesive residues,
prime
the surface and allow to dry, apply 3 mm of smoothing screed,
allow to dry fully, rub down imperfections, install new tiles.
Sometimes it can be difficult to get as far as laying the screed
in one day!
OK so you hope you’ll get away with it if some, or even
most, of those get missed out, to save time. But you cannot
lay tiles before the screed has set, so you either wait a few
hours,
hoping it sets quickly enough, or return the next day.
All rather risky and unpredictable!
Alternatively you could use Jumpax. You can safely leave the
old tiles down, then lay out polythene, lay Jumpax, lightly sand
the joints and lay new tiles immediately. No waiting, no uncertainty,
no return visit, NO RISKS.
