    Default Filling Gap Between Floors

    Having had useful info on a previous question I'm back, since removing the wall between two rooms I have a strip in the floor where the wall was through which runs a plastic DPC strip and the wavy edges of the damp proof membranes, this area is about 10mm lower than the floor levels each side, I tried filling with cement but the DPM's were trapping air and springing up through the cement, all a bit of a mess.

    Any ideas as to what could be used the bridge the gap before laying tiles?

    Thanks
