Hi,
I've taken up old floor tiles. Underneath are marley tiles (some missing) and some very rough areas at the edge with the scree is very crumbly or has come away with the tiles.
I'm thinking that I should use dilute PVA, (4:1) to bond/seal and make up the deep holes with new scree (4:1). The use a self leveling compound to fix the less deep areas. But how shallow can I go with scree, how deep do I use self-leveling? Or is better to use 1:1 sharp sand and self-leveling for all but the most shallow?
I'm tempted to get all the marly tiles off to give a flat floor as it might be cheaper than self-leveling to fix the missing patches of tiles.
Advice?
