Tiles in living room and laying laminate over existing tiles?
Posted: Wed May 27, 2020 2:12 pm
Hi.
Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere on this forum. I am also a DIY novice.
Our living room and kitchen has tiles on the floor. There is also a floor heating system under the tiles. I would like to replace the tiles with floorboards or laminate flooring. Can I just lay floorboards or laminate over the existing tiles?
I have read that using laminate is the best option due to the uneven nature of tiles but unsure about the heating system under the tiles.
I ideally do not want to dig up all the tiles as this will be a large and messy job.
Any advice appreciated.
