How do I lift my victorian hallway tiles without breaking them?
Q. Need to reposition some of my victorian tiles in the hallway, whats the best way to lift these, and whats best to clean them before relaying? Thanks
Asked by ELIZABETH C - Wed Mar 12 04:55:18 2008 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments

A. If they were installed correctly, the only way out is to smash them to bits. Seriously, the only way tiles will come out without breakage is if they were not set properly and they were barely stuck to the floor anyway. Most likely they are stuck and would require breaking and then planing the floor underneath. A LOT of work and messy. Good luck.

How would I attatch ceramic tiles to wood?
Q. We're making planter boxes out of wood, and painting tiles to create a mosaic. How would we attatch the tiles to the planters?
Asked by Victoria S - Fri Apr 4 15:08:48 2008 - - 8 Answers - 0 Comments

A. You should use an adhesive type caulk. and use silicone caulk in the grout lines. The wood will expand and contract and the tiles wont so you need to keep your adhesion flexible to keep the tiles from falling off. If you use adhesives like liquid nails or PL 200 type adhesives, they eventually dry and harden into a brittle type of adhesive that will crack and fail upon expansion and contraction. Just as ordinary grout would. There is a huge difference between tiling a coffee table (high and dry indoors) and a planter box that goes between high and low moisture conditions.

Can I take vinyl floor tiles and put them over ugly ceramic wall tiles on back splash?
Q. The back splash in the kitchen are small glossy tiles, can't paint them. Don't want to have the expense of removing. Would like to take vinyl floor tiles (like the design and cheaper than tile) and put them over the tiles. Is that a problem in general and what would be the best way to do that?
Asked by KP - Wed Oct 7 11:52:41 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. I don't understand why you can't paint them.?? Vinyl floor tiles would look tacky. Paint the tiles! You have the advantage that since these are tiles that won't get a lot of standing water on them, painting is an excellent alternative to replacing them. Here is an article on how to do it: Here is a video on how to do it. In this video she left out the sanding part which I think is important.
