Hi folks,
I'm about to undertake a project in the kitchen, retiling the floor and just wondered if I could grab some advice as I think it may not be as straightforward as I'd hoped. I stripped back the old dirty lino the other day to discover very old tiles laid that cover the whole of the room, right under all the work tops, some of these tiles have sunk down (but not cracked) so the surface is very uneven in parts. It's a 3rd floor flat I'm assuming under the tiles is a concrete base...
So was just wondering if it's best stripping all the old tiles out, whether it's the concrete that's likely to have sunk as well, and whether evening it out and making flat is something I can do. I'm not a pro but fairly handy I guess...
Anyway, cheers in advance!
Laurence.
