    Default Trowel/Bed height question

    I’m planning to use a 10mm notched trowel to lay 400 x 600mm -10mm thick floor tiles. I currently have a 15mm difference between the floor to be tiled and the floors joining to the room.

    Can someone please tell me what height difference there will be between the floors once the tiles are laid. Cheers!

    I reckon Neale wants to reply but he has the giggles....probably.

    Your tile is about 10mm thick, by the time you bed them down you should be flush with the other floors, fit a threshold strip between the joins for a better finish.
