HI
Some advice please
My kitchen renovation project is scheduled to start tiling in 10 days.
I thought i would just check the level of the floor, i kind of assumed it was level but there is a slope present
The room is approx 6m by 3m in a 1890 terraced house. The first 4m by 3m are pine wood floor boards over wood joist. The remaining 2m by 3m is a concrete sub base where an extension was built in the 60s
The floor is relatively straight, other than a dip in one of the corners, but there is a general slope of between 20mm and 25mm over the 6m length. The concrete section is pretty much level but the floor has lost about 20mm by the time the floor boards have finished, so i'm potentially looking at 20mm - 25mm compound on the concrete section
On a flat surface, I'm installing porcelain tiles on top of flex adhesive on top of electric underflooring heating sat on top of 10mm installation boards, again on top of flex adhesive
How would you go about ensuring the surface is flat before i start?
Seems to be lots of options
