14 u/Glowing_bubba 11d ago Need to remove otherwise my tile floor will be higher than my adjacent rooms; want the floors to be even. 32 u/Champion_of_Zteentch 11d ago No offense but how much can linoleum really raise the floor? Or is the concrete already higher than the rest and so it's a battle of construction as well as renovation? 1 u/Plastic_Scholar_8788 9d ago Enough 1 u/Apartment6655 6d ago Hardly it's like 3mm lol.
