Tiling part of a floor.

Tilers Forums Official Sponsors

Hi, I’m hoping someone could advise me. I’m wanting to tile only part of my garage floor. The back wall contains my utility but the rest of the garage is a gym so has rubber matting.
The garage floor is painted concrete. I know I have to put down some self levelling compound but how do I stop it spreading into the rest of the garage? I was thinking I could put a temporary baton threshold down and caulk or Silicon the edge between the floor and the baton to stop the compound spilling out. Would this work? Also do I need to use uncoupling membrane over the self levelling compound? I’m getting mixed results on my research. Many thanks.
