Do you have to??
That will cost a fair bit and be difficult to get a level again.

We tiled on tile in our bathroom, there are tile fixes especially for tile on tile.
Scoured and scratched the old ones plus washed thoroughly in caustic soda.
Did walls and floor ,not one moved yet.

I guess we were lucky as we had that extra room for the thickness added.:)

Best not to tile on tile - it is apparently the dodgy way of lazy tilers. You can rent a jackhamer and take the old ones off yourself - hubs did this in our house.

I may be able to send a young man round who would do it for cash...Let me know, he needs some pocket money. You had any quotes?
