suggestion on vitrified tiles over mosaic tiles

[ksmanju]

Dear Sir,

We intend to relay vitrified tiles of 2'x2' size on existing mosaic tiles of first floor house with out removing the mosaic tiles.
3 independent houses are constructed with out pillars on 30'x40' plot by building 9" wall above 9" wall.
Will the building withstand the additional weight of vitrified tiles for 700Sft ?. The additional weight of rock cement, adhesive also need to be taken while relaying vitrified tiles on existing mosaic tiles.Pl suggest .

Thanks

Hi Manjunatha
What is the span of the slab or room size you are planning to fix tiles. For ease of renovations some of the brands have come up with 8mm thk vitrified that can be just pasted on top of any existing flat floor surfaces.
Check with RAK brand , but they are priced hight than regular tiles
