Nice work. Just a suggestion, If you wet concrete floor first and allow it to absorb for 10-20mins, the cement slurry wont dry out as quick and the cement bed will stick better
Thank you 🙏😊. Yes if the floor is very porous I usually wet it first but if not I do it as i go. I usually like to do section by section as I move towards the door to avoid getting the cement under my feet and walking it on my dropsheets lol. I'm a bit of a clean freak.
Nice work and nice video. Very helpful for us DIYers. One question... how long are you leaving screed to dry/cure before you go to your next steps (presumably waterproofing, then tiling)? Thanks in advance!
Thank you very much 🙏🙏😊 Let's say the temp is 22 degrees average, If you're a Diy er give the cement bed 2 days to dry then waterproof the first coat then the next day the second coat, give that a day to dry before you glue down the tiles. That's the safe way.
@@Jaxtiling1 Thank you so much for your reply. Very helpful and useful. Really appreciate your videos and your generosity of time and knowledge in replying to comments and questions!
The pads make it heaps quicker and easier for us weekend warriors! Nice work and thanks for the upload. I’ve got 4 showers to do and I’m doing them on yellow tongue subfloor. Any tips appreciated Thankyou
Thank you very much. I would put hardies tile underlay on it before doing anything. Then reinforcement wire in the screed then waterproof on-top to falls and glue the tiles down

Leave it to the professional
@@benjamindelfs2718 nah
I want to give it a go
@@the_rocksf1148 you can do it just take your time. If you stuff up just remove it sand and cement is cheap
Hey mate if you do screed over the Davco K10 Plus, what do you use for slurry?
Add bondcrete into the slurry, slurry is neat cement with a little sand mostle neat cement.
Nice work! What is this pad exactly? Cheers
Thank you 😊🙏 , It's sand and cement to give you the guide for the perimeter with a straight edge
Did you use a primer under the screed or just the slurry?
No primer just a slurry
Thank You
Your very welcome
Hi, great info. What mix are you using? 4:1 sand and cement? Thanks
Thank you 🙏 yes 4 to 1
What’s slurry bro ????
It's cement mixed with water and brushed over the floor wet, so that when you apply the sand and cement mix over it, it Bonds to the concrete
@@Jaxtiling1 ohh okay thank you for the reply bro cheers
