I have a small 4X2 area in which I need to re-tile. The area now is outdoors and is set inside of a concrete slab. Who ever installed the tiles before installed them like paver's where they backfilled the small area with sand (about 3). My question is can I use durock or another cement board to get a solid surface for tiling or do I need to refill the area with concrete? I don't know too much about concrete work which is why I am looking to use the cement boards.Thanks
you are on the way to getting it done, do a little more research and you should have all the knowledge that is needed to accomplish this project.
this area needs to be filled with easy to use Sak-crete and then float base for tile and them you can RE-tile and it should hold up for years ..... the hardware giants offer classes in tile setting and you can learn the correct
u could thin set the concrete board but u would be better to redo the slap to what is needed and then tile it , cement work is not difficult , Im sure u can get pointers from the big box store or local hardware, good luck !!!
