What sets this area apart

Abdullah Al-Salem is a relatively modern residential suburb with low to mid-rise villas and small apartment blocks. Building here is newer than older districts, and foundations and floors are usually stable. When retiling, we carefully test the old tile's bond, and if it is strong with no moisture, we can build directly on it using strong professional adhesive. We prepare the surface with primer and specialized conditioning agents, and verify the new tile is perfectly level before grouting.

Abdullah Al-Salem is in Capital governorate, a modern residential neighbourhood near the British Embassy area.

We test surface flatness with a 1-metre straightedge before installing any new tile to ensure no gaps exceed 3 millimetres.

Questions about Tile-over-tile installation in Abdullah Al-Salem

Call now
Does building over old tile weaken the foundation?

No, if the old tile is strongly bonded and moisture-free. We test the bond and moisture first, and remove any weak sections before proceeding.

What is the difference between retiling over old and demolition and rebuild?

Retiling over old is faster, less costly and produces less dust and debris. But it requires a strong, moisture-free surface, while demolition and rebuild is the option if the old tile is very weak or moisture-saturated.
