Tiling onto existing tiles?

[flobadob]

We are going to tile our bathroom floor. It is already tiled at the moment and the tiles are very well stuck to the floor. Would it be okay to just fit the new tiles onto the existing tiles rather that taking the old ones off first?

Yes,It will give you a nice flat base,try and score existing tiles to let adhesive get a grip.

But make sure that the joins on the new tiles dont go on the joins of the old tiles. Happy tiling.

Rake out the existing grout as well.

Sound advice,penelope.

Does the door open inwards?/ May sure you have clearance.

[flobadob]

Thanks for that wasn't sure. Yeah the door opens in so will need to take something of the bottom mama

It should be fine.
Take care if you've not tiled before; my first attempt was just 'adequate'.

Go for it flobbers ........... make sure you can still remove the bath panel as well :o)

The bath panel is chipboard with tiles on it builder but gonna get a bath panel this time around. Never liked the tiled bath look.
