Tiles over vinyl
Posted: Thu Apr 09, 2009 10:33 pm
Hi, I have a kitchen floor with vinyl squares, (over chipboard I believe), that I wish to cover with stone tiles. I am aware that laying tiles directly onto the vinyl is not recommended, although the floor is sound and the vinyl shows no sign of damage. To be on the safe side I believe it would be prudent to cover with plywood. Assuming the floor is stable and flat, what is the suitable minimum thickness of plywood?
