Before I lay the tiles over the old quary tiles, I want to remove any loose tiles and take out any that are causing the floor to have peaks and replace with a screed mix.

how long do I need to let it dry before I can lay the tiles on it?

I want to try and level the floor as much as possible to get a good level finish

Thanks

On Average You should leave Concrete for 6 Weeks and Sand Cement Screeds for 3 weeks.
