How flat does the subfloor have to be? We had our inspected by manufacturers representative by using 3 m long level. The max deviation was 3mm however after installation the…

From experience if you want 600x600 tiles, and if they are rectified, screeding is preferred as most concrete slab isn’t perfectly flat and level. But it all depends on the…

Hi
Has anyone installed Pronto Engineered Timber by Preference Floor?
We got quoted 130 per sqm for supply and install
Is that a good price?
TIA

Laminate these days are pretty good - get the good one that is water resistant.

Need opinion here.

Thanks again for all the feedback!
There is one last thing that I hope you guys have an answer for

Thanks - yes the finish is great and cant fault it. It is the clicky sound that is bugging me (at certain spot).
I have been thinking if a thicker underlay…

Yes i moat feedback I received mainly pointing to uneven and flatness of the subfloor. Installing over tiles didn’t help either.
Professional advise was 12mm laminate and thick and good underlay…

Thank you for the detailed response. I have also received feedback that levelling clip should not be used to force level the tiles if the slab isn’t level.
