What sets this area apart

Faiha is a quiet suburb of older-style villas and simple residential buildings, typically with thick ceramic tile over cement beds. These older villas and flats often need floor and bathroom wall updates without breaking the original structure. We carefully inspect the old tile for movement, spalling and internal voids, and if we find weak zones we carefully remove them before spreading fresh adhesive and new tile.

Faiha sits in the Capital governorate, a quiet residential area near Faiha Park and the neighbourhood co-op.

We check the old tile's bond at least three separate points per square metre before setting new tile.

Questions about Tile-over-tile installation in Faiha

Call now
Will new tile stay stable when placed over old tile in a villa bathroom?

Yes, if the old bed is strong and void-free. Older bathrooms in Faiha typically have very solid tile because it was laid on a thick cement base.

What thickness of new adhesive do we apply when laying tile over old ceramic?

We spread adhesive three to four millimetres thick using a notched trowel. The smooth surface of old tile requires an even adhesive layer to ensure a firm bond with no voids.
