Hi there,

Technically speaking, it wouldn't works.. Reason being there is not holding grip between the old tiles and the new tiles...

I not too sure what actually u mentioned here, but from technical point of view (CEMENT + SUSU) before laying is necessary...

Just some hints when you speak to your Tiles Specialist, are they laying in DRY-Method or WET-Method.

The cement sand base @ screed most be done properly with all level well indicated. For better outcome, the moisture content of the base screed most be as low as possible.

For 2' x 2' tiles, the real way of laying was to use Teethed Trowel method instead of Butter Method. But I have not seen anyone in Malaysia using this method as far from my past experience.

For 2' x 2' tiles, try to get those reliable quality tiles. Just my own experience, my tiles crocked after couple of years due to in-stable moisture content and atmospheric temperature.

A) the base or original tile must be done in proper workmanship.

B) the mixture u mention doesn't seemed to follow any reference Standard.. (e.g BS, ASTM or etc)

C) I'm sure u need to form some key on the original tiles prior laying the new layer of screed.
