Dear soil scientists,
some tiles in the garage driveway are broken, which I have now removed. Some replacement tiles are still available.
Now I don’t want to do anything wrong: the edge where the car drives up is obviously subjected to more stress. If the garage door didn’t hit there, I would like to lay a rubber ramp mat, but that’s not possible. Therefore, the new tiles should at least be laid as stably as possible.
I would be grateful for useful tips. It would also be welcome if the necessary material were available in small quantities, as I do not need a 10 kg bag.
Thanks and regards,
Thomas

[*]Is there a special tip for which tile adhesive/mortar to use here? I have already heard of flexible adhesive with which tiles, for example on wood, are less likely to break quickly. Here, however, the subfloor is a stable screed.
[*]Could I achieve something with a better finishing strip?
[*]Should the strip lie directly on the screed or be supported with adhesive?
[*]Should I prime the screed? The old tiles were laid on a green coating. Some of it is still visible and difficult to sand off.
[*]I still have a notched trowel with a 5mm gap from laying parquet flooring. Can I use it?
I would be grateful for useful tips. It would also be welcome if the necessary material were available in small quantities, as I do not need a 10 kg bag.
Thanks and regards,
