Can you lay ceramic tiles on a wood floor if so what adhesive do we use?
Yes you can, but there are requirements & considerations. The sub floor must be solid, If you walk through the room & the dishes in the cupboard rattle, the floor is not solid enough... Total thickness should be at least 1 1/4 inches & solid!!! you also have to keep in mind how heavy Tile & thin-set are. a good size kitchen floor adds over a TON to your floor & the load the walls & foundation has to carry... If that floor is flexing, the tile is moving & well break, crack & crack the grout out... the wood should be clean & free of finishes & wax, a little roughness/ texture is even a good thing. The thin-set is mortar mixed with water and while the wood will soak up the water it will soon evaporate off & should not cause buckling.. lay out the floor with a chalk line & square from the center & work outward a few feet at a time and that keeps the humidity down too. Don't use adhesives on Ceramic tile, it is not as permanent as the tile & will not provide the "bed" to set the tile into...
