i have been tiling a wooden floor in the kitchen,i am using more and more adhesive just to keep it level, can someone give me some advice as to what to do next time

Are all the tiles layed then or are you still tiling it? What adhesive are you using?

What kind of wooded floor - chipboard, floorboards, plywood ?

check the level of your wooden floor first before tiling. It may have been running off. For jobs like this to get remedied, you will need to get a caprenter in to re-lay your floor boards.

yes do it properly

thanks dan, all the tiles have been layed and i used a flexible adhesive, i was just wondering what i could do next time as i used a lot of adhesive,many thanks

what do you mean by using more adhesive just to keep it level
look kiddo you never tell any customer you will keep the floor level , if its already out its impossible ,you say you can keep it flat, then keep your mouth shut, job done,people think tilers can hide bumps and dinges ,allright we can if we are getting a good wage for doing so but never commit to an agreement to rectify poor floors or walls

Chris B,

L&R's right in a way. If you're trying to get the floor level throughout, you're watching your bubble on your level too much. What you need to be doing is just tiling the floor and getting each tile flat and then run your edge along the floor every now and again to make sure you're staying flat throughout but you'll have a hard job levelling the worlds floors.

Use the right amount of adhesive for the tile and leave it at that. You may need to bed the odd tile where the floor dips, maybe you'll need to bed a few tiles around one that is sitting on a slight raise in the floor, but other than that, stick to the amount of adhesive the trowel allows you to spread.

I kind of agree -
But a few bags of self leveller often cancel ou the extra adhesive & time spent tring to do it with adhesive.
If you are convincing enough & explain to customer beforehand, they will usually go for it, if they think they will get a better job.
