Hope someone can help.
I wish to tile a dining room which adjoins a kitchen. The floor is concrete though in the kitchen the previous owners have placed new tiles over the old tiles so the surface sits approx 15mm above the concrete surface. Ideally I would like to make the new tiles level with those in the kitchen but was wondering what the best method of raising the floor level would be? I am aware of levelling compound but have never used it and as the room is approx 4m x 4m I’d imagine it would be quite difficult to handle. Also reluctant to use it as I may want to rip the kitchen tiles up one day and re-tile... though not on the old tiles! Are there any other solutions that would work e.g. plywood?
Many thanks!
