Does anyone here have experience of floor scrabblers & their capability?
A scrabbler has been suggested as the best method of removing aound 6 to 8mm off a concrete floor - area around 3m x 3m. This is needed to permit laying of ceramic floor tiles without raising the finished floor level.
Any hirers in the SE London, W Kent, E Sussex area?
TIA
Brandon Tool Hire have a good range & lots of branches.
Yes, they don't work
Forget it - you may get a millimetre or so, but the caborundum blocks keep falling out every 2 minutes and it will take you days to get anything near those depths.....the one I used was on concrete which had only been down a month, the room fills with dust and they don't go near the edges of the wall
When I made a bollocks of tiling the kitchen floor a few years ago I used levelling compound and mixed it too thick (ignoring the mixing instructions) and it started setting too quickly and to cut a long story short, erm..made a bollocks of it. I will have it retiled in the near future so I'm wondering how well a scrabbler will remove the levelling compound which maybe a 6 - 8mm deep in some places. (It probably didn't need levelling in the first place)
