[@garpikemike1]

Thank you for your great videos. I bought the lazer level you recommended in a previous video. It has a lazer on the bottom which makes finding the high spots much easier. I do not have the tripods but I saw another video where the guy put one screws in around the room at proper depth then filled until it was at the level i think i will try it.

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Hi Mike, yes, you can try. For my almost 18 years experience I did many tries with many different ways and screw as well. Good luck with your project. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@KT-hx2ul]

Question - some people say leveler will crumble underneath hardwood and make noise. I see you glue down on the leveler. Does the glue hold it together if it cracks?

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Hi, cracks not affected glue down installation if your self leveling compound well bonded with wood subfloor. For better bonding use right material. I have a few videos about it. Now so many “ experts “. Ask them about, what the difference between Red and white oak to understand they qualification.

[@ianmclean5541]

It never occurred to me to use the concrete grinder to smooth up the plywood floor. Do You find it works well compared to a heavy belt sander?

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

In my view, the grinder is superior because there’s significant chipping on the plywood, along with nails, screws, and staples. It's quite easy to damage sandpaper when using the belt sander. When I use a turbo blade, I can prepare the subfloor quickly and at a lower cost! - Turbo blade grinding wheel 7 inch - amzn.to/3XOeVj4 - Dewalt angle grinder 7 inch - amzn.to/3F8jZY6 - Dust Shroud for 7 Inch Angle Grinder - amzn.to/3OGatP0

[@philindeblanc]

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]

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

[@philindeblanc]

@@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.

I was thinking of using self leveler on a 1000sq ft floor over plyboard floor like in your video. The building is not always used though so it will get very cold in winter and hot in summer, unless someone is inside and turns on the heater. Do you think this could cause the leveler to crack if the plyboard is expanding/contracting?

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

If you used right primer, it can be with some cracks, but not pop up. What flooring material you gonna use over the slc?

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Sorry for late reply, I got your question after 9 hours you posted.

[@user-gy8is6gm4k]

@@MrYoucandoityourself Thanks for your reply. I was planning to just leave the slc as the floor itself, as I've seen in some other diy videos on youtube. I changed my mind though.. no slc. May just paint the plyboard or put some liquid rubber on it to give it uniform look and leave it at that. The building is just storage/study/playroom for kids.

Hi there, I am about to board my tongue and groove sun floor with 6mm plywood.. I have a slight slope at one end of my room should I put a thick plywood at that end of the room or just stick with 6mm for the whole project and let the self levelling compound do it’s job? Also is a spike roller enough to spread the compound out Level or would I need a long straight edge?

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

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?

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Hi Todd, you did everything right. For plywood or OSB don't need to mix primer T with water. Don't forget put anti-fracture membrane, before you install tile, or put membrane first and then leveler over. Make sense?

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

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]

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?

Decent video, but I couldn't even understand half of whatever he was trying to say.

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Can you show me time on my video with this trouble to understand, please?

NO METAL LATH (metal sheets) USED ON TOP OF THE PLYWOOD!!! THE INSTRUCTIONS SAYS IT IS REQUIRED TO USE IT ON TOP OF WOOD OR PLYWOOD! ANOTHER GUY USED METAL LATH (metal metal mesh sheets) ON ANOTHER VIDEO . Why this man didn’t use it if it is required??!!

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

You’re the first person who asked me about it. Sorry.

[@elidyson256]

This would be a nightmare if you had to service pipes or electrics underneath in the future You will have to break open all that levelling

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

It’s not my business.
