Ive been googling this but its just left me in a totally confused spin. So if someone could advise me what I need then I would be very grateful,
I need to level the floor in my house as ive removed all the old tiles. it seems they stuck the old ceramic floor tiles down over some kind of vinyl floor tiles (Marley tiles??) which have come up and left me with some black bitumen type stuff which isn't sticky and just bare concrete in other places. I need to also fill some damaged bits where I carried away with the hammer and chisel.
can I just buy something like, this https://www.screwfix.com/p/mapei-ultimate-leveller-1210-self-levelling-floor-compound-20kg/4377v
and bash it down on top of everything? or will it not work over the bitumen? some people say you need to prime the concrete parts whilst others say to just dampen it down.
ive got about 20 square meters to do.
im guessing I can just mix it in a big yellow bendy bucket.
