Aqua Step/Plank flooring

I'm considering fitting some Aqua Step or Aqua Plank (same brand but 4mm instead of 8mm thick) flooring in the bathrooms of my new property. Does anyone have experience of this stuff?

Also, given that it is 100% waterproof, would I still need to lay a plastic membrane on a concrete floor before fitting it? (underlay would be used with/without the membrane)

Thanks.

  • Bump. Anyone?
  • we have just laid similar stuff in our bathroom, it does not need a plastic membrane as far as i am aware and it just goes down with underlay

    however be very very careful with aquastep as a supplier as we ordered it and they kept us waiting for 2 months as it never was delivered - there is another company dumafloor who do the same stuff and they have uk stock and see to be more organised.

    the importers of aquastep let us down big time and cost us huge delays.

    I have laid Aquastep (Belgian brand) in two small bathrooms with great success.
    It's not cheap to buy but it is as easy to fit as any laminate floor therefore easy to DIY.
