    Default Tiling over existing tiles on fireplace

    Hi there

    I have recently moved house and there are original solid fuel fireplaces throughout the house. I dont like the tiles on one of the fireplaces. Can you tile over existing tiles on it and if so how easy or hard is it to do. Are there any tradesman in the Central Scotland area who would be interested in carrying out this job for me.

    Any advice would be appreciated.
