Ask a Tradesman. Best Answer. You can tile over the current tiles, and as another tradesman has stated please check the tiles are sound and not loose as this would cause problems later. Should they be loose, remove these and level the hole/gap to match the existing tiles, either with bonding/tile adhesive.
Bottom Line. Laying tile is easy but laying tile and doing it well is difficult. One problem is that it is difficult to reverse tilework, should you make an error. Thinset mortar allows for some repositioning. Unfortunately, thinset will also resposition your tile for you, especially in the case of wall tile.
