    Default Gap

    Hi Guys

    Am a complete amateur but would appreciate some suggestions. We have an old house with downstairs shower room. I have replaced the tray and now have a gap between the tray and the old quarry tile floor floor that is about 2 inches wide and an inch deep. Can you guys suggest a material that I can us to fill it, and give me a level surface.

    Any help appreciated

    Not that often you can buy in small quantities so You may end up buying a 20kg bag.
    What sort of finish do you need as its not the only way to do this but probably the way most professionals would do it as they would have the materials to hand.
