Michael G asked:

Right now my kitchen floor is laminate and i want to put down ceramic tile. I dont want to have to rip it up. Can I put plywood over the floor and put ceramic tile right on top of that?

Would it be strange to have two different kinds/colors of ceramic tile installed next to each other. For instance, one in the entry way, one in the dining area?

Ceramics and Pregnancy….Am I ok?
I have been working in a ceramics studio for a few hours, a few nights a week and was wondering if I should be concerned. I’m 17 weeks and didn’t start until well after my first trimester was over. I haven’t glazed anything, and the glazes are not mixed in the facility, so there is no barium and lead just laying around, but I’m just wondering if there’s anything in the actual clay that I should be concerned about re: pregnancy. I have worked with clay for a long time, so spare me the schpiel about silicosis (unless it’s somehow pregnany related). Been a potter for many years, just never been pregnant!

Also, if something is a risk, would wearing a particulate mask help?

THANKS!!!

working with basic white cone 6 stoneware, if that makes a difference.

I heard mixed reviews on this idea. Please tell me how to install tile over tile. For the people who say it’s a bad idea, please explain why using ceramic tile as a subfloor is inferior to a concrete or wood subfloor? There has to be a legitimate explanation other than “it’s not the right way”
I don’t have to worry about leveling, because the floor is already level from when the first tiles were installed.

Plus, there is an adhesive for EVERYTHING. You can’t truly say that the new tile won’t stick to the old tile. That’s like saying the tile surface is ADHESIVE RESISTANT.
