Got a kitchen floor to do and it consists of a concrete floor which then meets a timber floor. It also meets another area of concrete floor which has been poured at a later date to the original floor. Whole floor needs self levelling as is up and down and old https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ which is stuck really well etc.
My plan was to rip the old ply up on the timber part, put 22mm tongue and groove No More Ply down on it. Self level rest of the floor up to the no more ply, leaving an expansion gap. Mat the lot of it and crack on.
Customer has been to a few tiles shops for prices, one has told him mat the lot first then self level the lot. Floor has high and low points and old https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ etc so wasn't an option for me as getting the mat stuck down will be a pain.
Another shop has told him don't need no more ply and to remove old ply and stick normal ply down on the timber part, mat on top of the ply using an s2 https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/ to stick it then self level the whole lot and tile on top with an s2 https://www.tilersforums.com/forums/tile-adhesive/. I don't see the point in the mat on top of the timber here personally and might as well just use no more ply and not mat anything?
What would you lot do?
