Hi everyone,
I have an outdoor front porch that is tiled with quarry tiles, i have some sandstone flags left over from my patio and would like to put these down on the porch...
Can i lay these directly on the existing quarry tiles and if so what should i use as an adhesive? I've been using an SBR/cement slurry rolled onto the bottom before placing them on my mortar bed for the patio - would the SBR/Slurry be enough to adhere them to the quarry tiles with maybe a very thin mortar bed for levelling purposes (obviously the porch is perfect level wise but the flags are not all perfectly equal in thickness)
i should also mention that the porch is covered so i'm not worried about drainage beneath the slabs, there is a nice fall away from the house too.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
