I'm planning to put tiles in the kitchen which company Duscov Tile Inc. Please tell me how much the floor will rise if you put it? The base of the floor is concrete. Is it possible to somehow put tiles so that the floor height rises to a minimum? If so, how much will it rise, what kind of tiles are best for minimum lift? Thanks a lot in advance.

Are you asking about how high (thick) a tile floor will be?

If so, start with the condition of your concrete base. Flat, Level, cracked, dry (moisture coming through), etc. Those answers will let you determine if you need to install a decoupler like Ditra and so on. From there determine the size and thickness of your tile, which will allow you to estimate the thickness of thinset needed.
