Question Open Question: Tiling over old bathroom tiles?
permalink
A few years ago, I had a new bathroom fitted. A friend fitted some mosaic tiles over waterproof plasterboard but didnt do a good job. I now want to re tile using larger (1ft sq) tiles. I dont want to remove the old tiles as this would probably damage the plasterboard and would be a massive job as I may have to re plaster board the walls. Is it feasable to tile over old bathroom tiles or should I remove the old ones first?

you will spend more on tile adhesive, to tile on tile. than to replace the plasterboard. and also it would easyer to tile on plaster board.

I agree. spend £20 - £25 ON PLASTERBOARD YOU WILL FINISH WITH A BETTER JOB, WORTH PUTTING IN THE EXTRA TIME.
