Thanks for a great video and your comprehensive replies. I intend laying a large wooden floor in a barn conversion using suitable Jouplast pedestals.

Clear and to the point. Thanks very much f the video. In a few months I will be building a similar patio.

Thank you so much for the video! Very informative. Been hard trying to find a video thats not from the manufacturers/sellers of the pedestals.

Thanks, Ben. Bought a bunch of these without really knowing where to start. You fixed that!

Excellent review. Thanks for putting in the time for all of us poor souls trying to figure it out. I found your review very relaxing as well. I’m hoping you have some other how to videos. I’d watch you change a tire or clean the sink.

Thanks for the video. It's by far the most useful and practical one I've found! I've had a bad run with hiring in "experts" so I wanted to cover a cement stained patio myself without ripping it out. Hoping this will be ok on riven slabs with the help of a bit of sand in the holes...we shall see!

Informative video mate, I'm just looking at pedestals now, thanks for explaining

[MrDanmccann]

This system looks like you could have issues with tiles cracking due to it being hollow underneath !! 20mm porcelain tiles are strong but any excess pressure I.e kids/adults jumping or dropping heavy items they will crack if not fully supported underneath.

Looking at this a few years late, but so helpful. Thank you! Can I ask where you put your French drain and why you needed it?

[Wallbarn]

Very good instruction video, Ben. Well done.

[Kingston]

I’m a novice, so this was great, thanks

is been 3 years, how dose it handle is still any good ?

[philriley]

2yrs is there anything that you would change on the install?

[mane]

do you know the manufacture of porcelain tiles? can you even share pls? Im going to use mot type 1 but there are big stones in it? does type 1 comes in variuos sizes?

Hi Ben
Good informative video on using the Pedestals and that size Patio will compliment your Garden and Home. Have you any idea what bearing weight the Ceramic Slabs will take, as I was going to use Concrete Slabs but harder to handle.

[fabiancalle]

Hi..can you tell me where I can get that system in Colombia

[mpjubb]

I'm considering using this system for our patio. Is it only for porcelain tiles and What issues could there be when it rains and then freezes underneath the patio? Is their a risk of the pedestals shifting?

Cheers

Thank you for the video, what is the material under the pedestals ? No concrete ?

[mane]

You video inspired me as we have drainage challenge so we eventually started the project. I may send you pics when completed

Few more questions:

#1 How do you protect edges? - Do you put anything from patio to step into garden as like you my patio will have a step into garden.

#2 Should I glue base of risers in far ends. I did j

#3 So far experience is good we are only half done - However, there is very minor moment (very minor) when we step into patio - Is it due to rubber. Slabs are placed solid though.

#4 My type 1 is well compacted - however, it is not leveled 100%. Any tips to do minor adjustments ?

does it not sound hollow when you walk on it?
