I find this but I don't know if is suitable and how can be fixed.
Kingspan Insulation Boards,70mm 4 sheets or 11.52m 2
Offices bathrooms,concrete floor,around 120 sqm floors in total.Ask us to sort out...
Anything suitable?
That's exterior insulation for attaching to the building and rendering. Not sure if it has much strength in compression.
Like above, two layers of 50mm adhesives together , or 50mm kingspan with 59mm liquid, or sand/cement screed.
Personally the insulation board will be quicker. Lay one layer, then the next one at 90degrees.

You mean toilets then ?
If a pumped screed is too heavy any screed will be .
Id still think about building a timber floor , 3x2 , ply then cement boards .
That will lift it around that height .
Yes,toilets,just one shower in the basement

It is really easy , you do need the right tools though , us tradesmen should be able to do other basic bits of other trades , Ive picked loads up over 30 years doing my own houses and stuff, once you get confident it's easy enough.
but if you just wanna stick to one thing it's fair enough
