How deep is the existing concrete, what area does it cover and what condition is it in?

Advice?

1 - make sure your levels are not going to compromise DPC

2 - use a stiff bedding mortar with relatively low cement content

3 - butter each piece as it's laid using a b6:1 mortar of bricklaying consistency

4 -use a very, very stiff jointing mortar packed into the joints as you proceed

5 - book a series of appointments with an osteopath
