I am attempting to renovate my bathroom starting with the floor. The old flooring,(Tile),
Was removed exposing paper backing, and the dried glue adhesive,(Which have been removed,& the plywood flooring sanded. I would like to re-tile the floor but am uncertain
If I must install backerboard over the old flooring. I am hesitant as I am afraid raising the
Floor to high will cause problems when I re-install the toilet,(When the toilet was installed,
40 plus years ago, the plywood on which the toilet sat was partially trimmed down to allow the seating of the toilet onto the flange).
1) If I can get away without the cement backerboard, what adhesive should I use?
2) If not, how do I deal with the flange being below floor level?
