hi all,

can i know how much will i need to fix uneven toilet that cause water flowing/draining failed. 9(20cm) x 11(20cm) toilet area. do i able to just apply another layer of tiles on top of existing one ?

Was in chat with a contractor doing waterproof layer on top of existing tiles, he claims that the additional layer is 5mm thickness and can cure water not flowing issue where no hacking required.

Any thought?? If to hack how much?, is not hack - what solution i have.

the contractor do offer me this type of coating too, but does it really works for releveling the flooring?

best advise, relay. estimate around rm 1500 including water proofing

Tile relay? u saying adding another layer of tiles???

hack off existing, re-waterproofed, re-adjust floor gradient, lay more premium tiles

still thinking other alternative without going through hacking,

no, is the only choice for long term solution. such can last you for at least another 10 years if you doing it right

sifu, do you have recommended contractor doing this job ?

try kaotim.com

becoz i dunno where is ur location, not sure if my contractor willing to travel there

no need to hack. just put another layer of waterproof on top and lay on top. important to get the gradient so that no 'ponding'....

my unit is at taman melati setapak area

mind to share more detailed of this???

I've worked with two contractors on this basis. Lees work. Cheaper. Less rubbish to cart away. However thicker.

They will make pock holes in the existing tiles. Put the layer of water proof n cement. Lay on top. Fairly straight forward.

That is waterproof without hacking right ? because the main issue im having is water unable to smoothly escalate to the escalate hole.

which results in ponding. simple but bad problem. your contractor need to use the spirit level conscientiously to ensure the gradient is right...

Mind to share the cost for that?

sorry lah, i'm not contractor....ask your local hardware shop for recommendation.....

use the the correct terms..

The problem is uneven bathroom floor finish level, this results in water ponding at certain areas of the bathroom floor..

you are looking for a solution due to the water unable to drain out (water ponding) to to this floor unevenness..

It helps others to understand the actual situation..

As i understand "Escalate" means to increase which is damm confusing

flow is a better word than escalate .... i think....
