But here it goes.
I've always been told that on tile floors, you must have 1" solid wood underneath it, and doing a 1/2" osb floor with 3/8" or 1/2" durarock or schleuter sp? board is not a qualification.
I have a toilet job I'm doing tuesday and I was going to make sure there's 1" of wood under this toilet or at least set it up so the tile guy doesn't have to pull the toilet, rework anything that I touch at that point, with exception of running the tile up to the flange that will be gauged and set according to industry standard.
What's going on is I'm probably overthinking this and need to just replace the floor and leave the rest to the tile guy. We'll see.
I just don't want to get into a predicament where the floor runs to the door with a termination point where the floor got too high, and it is considerably higher than the carpet. That never looks good but I need what's underneath that toilet to be industry standard.
I'm not a floor guy, I just need specs to make sure this tile and grout never crack due to what's under it.
