    Default Concrete grinding

    Hi

    I've just plastered out an extension for my builder and the owner of the property has asked me to tile there new kitchen.

    The builder has set a concrete screed level with the old quarry tiles in the old part of the house...where the screed joins the quarry tiles there is a area of raised concrete thst i need to grind away what tool would i use for this?

    also is it ok to tile on top of the old quarry tiles they are rock solid?

    thanks

    Aaron
