Hi
I am about to tile a kitchen in an old Victorian house with 40 x 60 porcelain tiles. The floor is a mixture of suspended timber and concrete slab (looks like the old scullery/out house). The timber floor has been covered with 18mm WBP ply, the concrete floor has been levelled with self levelling compound.
The question is can I use the flexible tile adhesive on both wooden (ply) part and the concrete parts of the floor or should I use rigid (dry set) adhesive for the concrete?
Also is three a need for an expansion joint between the two types of floor as they will expand and contract at different rates? The room dimension is approx 3 x 6m with the floor being 50/50 wood and concrete.
Thanks in advance.
