Default Wooden Kitchen Floor

Hi everybody!

Hope you can help a DIYer.

Our kitchen has a suspended wooden floor with 40 year old + floor boards most in good condition and those that are'nt I've replaced.

We are having new kitchen units in the next couple of weeks.

The problem, in the past I've used Dukka board as a base for tiling, works really well in the bathroom and the downstairs loo.

Did think about using Dukka board (6mm) again in the kitchen with limestone tiles, concerned about the weight of the wooden kitchen units and the granite worktops, will it squash the Dukka board?

I am tilling the entire floor prior to kitchen being fitted.

Suggestions please.


Ian

I would use 18mm ply and make sure its rigid especially if the kitchen
units are to be built on top.
