Hi there. My name's Eric and I've decided to have a go at tiling parts of the bathroom in my new (new to me) house. I've never tiled walls before - I've tiled floors but never floors. I'm a bit of a worrier and so want to check with people who know what they're doing before I start!

hello,
got a customer who has asked to have bathroom tiled on top of existing tiles.
couldn't be persuaded to remove existing tiles, so what adhesive would people recommend for 300 x 400 ceramic tiles
original tiles seem securely bonded to substrate.
many thanks in advance
