I'm about to have kitchen and utility floors screeded but have not yet decided on exact ceramic tile but I need to set the height of the screed.
Is there an average fitted thickness for ceramic floor tiles.
Ones I've fitted in the past were I think about 8mm....with about 3mm of adhesive final thickness was about the same as carpet therfore if I set the screed height to the same as adjacent carpeted floor it should be OK
Will I be able to find a good selection of tiles this thickness....most web sites don't specify the thickness of their tiles.

Thanks

Screed is 75/80mm sand and cement with wet UFH tied to steel mat over Celotex.
