Tiling over sound proofing

Question

Can you tile over a sound-proofed floor?

Nikolay · Answer

Yes, but you have to look at exactly what the floor is made of and what the sound insulation is, because we have made such floors in Birmingham at the railway station, sound-insulated, but with metals, and then stones are glued on them, maybe even tiles. Thank you, Nikolay

Yes you can although that said that movement from the bass may cause some movement or cracking of tiles , personally I would avoid or look at speaking to a tile provider and see what they suggest and if any back up can be offered on the tiles chosen ,as Said definitely not something I would tile and give a guarantee on
