Rec Room Tile

We originally wanted to stain the concrete in the rec room. Once we got the room cleaned up from construction debris it was obvious that the floor in that room needed attention. We had our contractor come back out and "patch" the low spot. You could clearly see that the slab was not level. When I put a 4' level on the floor it was unlevel by 1 3/4". So they came out and put a leveling compound on the floor. This meant that we could no longer stain the concrete and had to decide on another flooring. We ended up going with tile. The installer said the floor was still very unlevel and he did the best he could to use thinset to level it out. In the end I can still see some of the highs and lows, but I am happy with the finished product. It is after all just a Rec Room....
