Just wondering if anyone has ever come across a flooring product called Pandomo and made by Ardex: http://www.pandomo.de/en/ It's some sort of concrete based self levelling screed, which can be coloured and finished in basically any way you want - an alternative to polished concrete I guess? We had our minds pretty much made up on porcelain tiles because we didn't really think polished concrete gave us enough options and also worried about cracking... but our Building Designer mentioned he was looking into this for a house he is building for himself, so started to do some research! There seem to be a number of suppliers/installers about the place...here is another site with info if anyone is interested: www.concreteartisans.com.au It does look a bit industrial I guess, but we really like the seamless look...and if its possible to colour it however we want and add some texture, think it might work! Anyway, if anyone knows anything about it or has any thoughts on how it looks or reasons why it might not be a good idea...i'd appreciate any comments!! Thanks!

I'm based in London and the polished concrete market doesn't seem quite as advanced as it is back home - I found one contractor who works with this product - having seen a friends recently installed new polished concrete floor with a large crack (not using Pandomo I should add), I'm slightly terrified we could have the same result having outlayed a fair old chunk of wedge. Let me know if you got on OK with it. Thank you! Kathryn 1000000% definitely add insulation. I have in my home and it makes a big difference minimising sound transfer. Insulation is pretty cheap and definitely worth it 2 6591 Engineering timber is certainly a less fuss option, times cheaper to supply and install and better withstands humidity. 1 16402 Hi there, I'm a conplete newbie to this, but I'm looking to put a floor down in my 6x9m shed.
