I need to level my bathroom floor which already has the subfloor and durock on. It's a good inch off. I've used the self-leveling stuff from HD before, but never on the second floor, where if it leaks through the floor, it's bad news. How would you recommend pouring the liquid so that it levels the floor without finding its way beyond through the floor surrounding the toilet waste drain, etc? I was thinking of putting up the drywall and caulking the small gap between wall and floor, then surrounding the toilet waste with some pieces of wood and caulking that too. Once everything is caulked, I'll pour the floor, let it setup, then kick the caulked temporary wood out of the way. Any other suggestions? How do the pros do this? Thanks!
