Hi guys,
I recently renovated my kitchen. It included stripping the flooring to bare floorboards and as they were quite uneven I laid 12mm hardibacker on top of it. On top of the hardibacker I've laid underfloor heating and poured around 15mm of self levelling compound in two layers. On top of that went tile adhesive and tiles. Kitchen floor is now significantly higher than my entrance hall floor. Currently it's bare floorboards but I want to lay laminate flooring there. Even with 5mm polystyrene underlay kitchen floor will still be higher by about an inch. Is there anything I can lay under the styrofoam underlay to make floors more even in terms of height. Entrance hall also leads to the living room but there is 12mm PU underlay and carpet in it so it would also help to eveb out the floors.
Any ideas how to tackle this? Thanks!
