Tiling my front porch
Hi Guys
I was wondering if I could get some guidance for tiling my front porch. As seen in the pictures the existing porch as got some sort of pebbly surface. Prior to tiling do I need to level it? How deep should I dig the flower bed down?

Re: Tiling my front porch
The pebbles will need removing first (small jackmammer works best) then there will be a coating that needs removing (grinder) hope this helps
