Hi, my mother would like me to renew her toilet flooring with lino, she currently has underlay and carpet in there. The room is very small at 0.8m x 1.5m so is quite tight to work in. The floor underneath is quite rough surface concrete, i.e. it would show through any lino so I was thinking of maybe putting down some 6mm plywood first.
Trouble with doing that is it would need some awkward cutting to go round the loo nicely and then it would have to have a join or two for the bits round the back and I don't think too many joins would be great either although they would be mainly towards the back so not walked on and so hopefully would not show through lino. I was thinking of taping them to help but not sure.
Then I wondered if I would be better with a latex leveler finish instead, not sure if I could by such a small amount.
Any advice, should I go for ply or leveler and if leveler can you recommend one that is possibly good and easy to use?
Which ever method we don't want to increase height much if possible.
Any help or advice appreciated.
