Tiling over quarry tile- outside step

[Bridgeway1]

Hi All!

Total DIY’er here- we’re in a project house which has drained us, and one of the final jobs we need to do is the front steps.

The top step has quarry tiles which I think are original (60’s) and they’re solid and secure. Could we tile over these without removing? The tiles we’re using are 450mmx450mm.

We’re probably going to be here for 2-3 years so won’t be upset if these don’t last another 60 years.

Plan on using premix grout and adhesive- any thoughts on best adhesive for the job?

Thanks all!!

If they really are solid then yes you can.
Use bagged adhesive and grout, don’t muck about with that other rubbish.
