Don't forget we've got a whole range of levellers - as well as BAL Level Plus - including BAL Level Max, our thick-bed fibre leveller. 📺Check out this awesome project from Retro Tiling Ltd - using Level Max on a bathroom renovation to prep the floors for tiling because in his words "the existing floor was all over the place". Superb video 👏 Find out more about BAL Level Max here: BAL Level Max | Tiling Products | BAL Adhesives #FloorLevelling #TilingProject #LevelMax #BALProducts #TilingTips When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.
