We are considering a house with slate flooring throughout but we don't like the darkness and it is very cold (the house is in a very cold part of regional NSW). Has anyone done this? Thank you Re: Floating floor boards over slate tiles 2Apr 22, 2024 8:18 pm To put anything over slate you will need to put self level compound over the entire area as slate various in thickness and is very un even. To install most types of flooring the substrate needs to be straight. just pull up the slate. If you go over the top, your tiles would not have an even surface to be glued to. Im no tiler, but i can imagine a couple of things being an issue… 1 1859 I would probably render it and then paint it as per your other advice, or gyrpock over the top. 1 5576  |
