Hey, I'm looking for advice.

I'm in SLC helping a friend with her bathroom. We are removing floor tile and will replace it with new tile. I'm using a RotoZip with a blade attachment to cut the tile, then I tap it and remove it. It comes out fairly easily with this method. Underneath the tile is about a 1" concrete(?) subfloor. I have been scoring the subfloor when I cut the tile. Here are my questions:
1. Can I use the tile's thinset to fil those score lines?
2. If not, can I use floor leveler?
3. If not, do I have to take out the whole subfloor?

She wants to remove the subfloor. I really don't think it's necessary. It's going to be VERY time consuming, and we'll need to match the thickness of the old subfloor so that doors, cabinets, tub, etc... line up.

Gimme your advice, I'll appreciate it no matter which direction it makes us go.

Thanks!
