  • Tiling over existing bathroom tiles

    I am looking to tile over existing tiles in my bathroom. They are porcelain tiles, slightly uneven and a bit worn/cracked and have been there for about twenty years when the house was built and we moved in. Is it okay to tile over these tiles or could it create issues? Thank you!
