Discuss Tile ontop of tile? in the Canada Tile Advice area at TilersForums.com.

So, I have been asked to tile a pub floor roughly 40m2, the guy wants me to go over the existing tiles so it doesn't create more work, I have advised him that they should be took up as there is a lot of flex and bounce in the floor as it is, but he wants to take the risk.

Is there anything I can do to make the floor less likley to fail slc, uncoupling mat etc?
