    Does size matter (that much) when it comes to backer board?

    I've had to take up half of my floor tiles including the 9mm ply that was underneath. I'm wanting to replace it but am thinking about using a cement board/no more ply option instead. Would a 10mm option work if I used slightly less adhesive? Any help is appreciated.

    Use two size trowels to build up/flatten?

    I have a valley in the cement and am not willing to use self-levelling. Only maybe around 1/4" off and it's really only one strip of the floor. Seems like using a 1/4 X 3/8 for everywhere but a 1/2 X 1/2 for that line of tiles wouldn't be a bad idea to even things out. Is that a typical practice...

    What size notches? Tiger?

    Do you need to increase the bed thickness when tiling a wall with a heavier, thicker tile? Would you use a bigger notch on a 20x20cmx10mm porc. tile over a thin 20X20cm ceramic tile?

    Have I bought the wrong size trim?

    Hi All My tiles are 9mm but I'm planning to use an 8mm square trowel so I think that means the adhesive will be 4mm thick. I bought some 10mm tile trim. Is that wrong and I should get at least 13mm or 14mm to allow for the adhesive?
