Thanks in advance for any help.

I agree, can you be absolutely certain how the previous tiles were laid. Adhesive used, method, preparation etc. Is there a reason you cannot remove the old ones?

Thanks for replies.
I just thought it might save a lot of work removing the old tiles if they are sound?

If the old tiles were fixed well , it should be a good idea to keep them .

The old ones are fine- conservatory floor, so there's no issue with the extra height. The wife just wants a change of colour.:mad2:
