Earlier on, I rescued quite a few intact quarry tiles (1950's) from a floor:
I'm thinking of cleaning them up and using them as a new back doorstep.
One layer will sit across the inner and outer leaves of the cavity wall in the doorway, becoming the door threshold step.
I don't see much point in putting a DPC below them as it will hinder me trying to get them to stay down - better in this respect to mortar them directly to the bricks so they don't fall off.
Being solid clay I don't see a problem with them tracking damp from one side to the other, especially as they will be installed at the normal DPC height, not above any existing DPC.
Anyone see why this would be a bad idea?
If so, anyone got a method of fixing them with a DPC so they won't fall off?
