Product Information

It is essential to isolate the skirting from the floor surface to prevent impact sound flanking transmission. When the skirting board is being fixed to the wall, lightly trap the Flanking Strip between the bottom of the skirting and the flooring panel and neatly trim off the excess. Storage heaters are considered to be an extraordinary loading and will require support direct from the sub-floor, independent of the flooring system.

Components exposed to wet conditions such as ingress of rain or plumbing leaks should be discarded and replaced. The provision of access to services is most successful if the location of services is detailed at an early stage. Comparing prices will also ensure companies can’t take advantage of you and give you a fair price. 4. Word of MouthIn acoustic systems ensure that gaps where services come through the flooring are sealed to prevent airborne sound leakage. When laying alternate rows of Support Battens, commence with a half-length so that the joints are staggered. Ensure that there is an expansion gap of at least 6mm between the edges of the flooring and at the perimeter walls. Our shims are available as square shims, horseshoe shims and rectangular shims. These can be used for various applications. Horseshoe shims can be used when installing glass, spacing and aligning tiles whilst other shim types can be used for squaring up cabinets, adjusting floorboards, levelling wobbly toilets and much more. All joints and air paths between concrete units and at perimeter walls must be carefully and thoroughly grouted for effective performance of acoustic floors.

Acoustic Cradle system enables a concrete floor to meet the sound transmission standards of Approved Document E 2003 and subsequent amendments.In areas where heavy loadings are anticipated, such as kitchens and bathrooms the Support Batten centres should be reduced to 300mm. The best way to find a great insulation installer is through recommendations. Make sure you ask friends and family. They will most likely give you their honest opinion and can tell you from first hand experience. BS 8201:2011 states that “it is reasonable to recommend that the concrete be considered dry when the relative humidity falls to 75% or less (when tested by use of a hygrometer).

Forming a ladder frame structure directly beneath the sole plate using noggins of approx. 100mm supported on Cradles. Concrete ground level supported floors must have a damp proof membrane and screed complying with the appropriate Codes of Practice and Building Regulations. This system not only facilitates the incorporation of services but is also frequently specified with water based underfloor heating systems. The Cradle Plate is designed to accept support Battens running in both directions where necessary to provide secure support for access panels.The building must be weatherproof and all wet trades completely dried out before commencing installation of the flooring system. The position of the partitions should be marked on the structural floor before commencing the floor installation to ensure satisfactory support is provided and that services are correctly positioned.

To ensure consistent levels throughout the building, commence in corridor areas proceeding to rooms. Set out the Cradles and Support Battens around the perimeter of the room so that the Support Battens are approximately 50mm from perimeter walls. If it is intended that services run under the Support Battens a deeper Resilient Cradle Support should be specified and adequate clearance provided beneath the Support Batten.The standard 8mm Resilient Cradle Support will not allow for services to run underneath the Support Batten. Excessive moisture from cast in-situ slabs and screeds which have not dried out can have adverse effects on flooring materials and timber components.
