First you have to pull up the old flooring. Once you have the old flooring up you have to put the tile glue on the floor, and place the tile on top of it. Then you have to grout in between each of the tiles. When you get to the edges you will have to cut the tiles to fit.
Installing asbestos flooring involves less disturbance to the asbestos-containing product than does removal of asbestos felt roofing. Consequently the flooring installer probably has less exposure to airborne asbestos fiber than does the roofing remover, and therefore less risk of developing cancer.However, if a similar comparison is made between the flooring remover and the roofing remover, the greater risk falls to the flooring remover.

Yes, it is possible to install granite tiles over existing ceramic tile flooring, but it requires proper preparation and consideration. The ceramic tile surface should be thoroughly cleaned, and any loose or damaged tiles should be repaired or replaced. The surface should be level and free from any residue or debris. Applying a bonding agent or primer can improve adhesion. It's important to note that adding granite tiles will increase the height of the floor, so door clearances and transitions may need adjustment. Consulting with a professional installer or contractor can ensure proper installation and address any specific requirements or challenges.

Slate is heavy, if the roof is not sturdy it must be fixed before it caves in. Personally, I would remove the old slate being carefull not to break the undamaged ones, these can be sold for at least $1.00 each slate. then you must fix the trusses resheet the roof and apply a modern roofing system such as ashpalt, or plastic shingles. There is no cheap or easy fix for this problem.

Yes - but a qualified yes. If you are talking about the 12" square vinyl floor tiles that are still securely fastened then you can go right over them. If they old tiles are lifting or loose then the answer would be no. If only one or two tiles are loose then you can remove those ones - and with a patching / floor leveling compound fill in the voids so that the entire floor is smooth and level. If you can not find a patching compound try using a modified latex thinset (for tiles). It sticks to most things and is relatively cheap and will last longer than the sheet vinyl floor. If many of the tiles are loose - remove them all. The old adhesive is starting to fail and will cause problems after you install the new floor. There are several ways to fasten sheet vinyl flooring the most common being glued down. Check the manufacturer's instructions on what the acceptable substrates are. I would highly recommend first washing (to degrease) then scuff sanding the old tiles to promote adhesion.

not necessary if they're in decent shape and you don't have a heavy multiple layer of old shingles underneath them. I left my old roofing intact when I put concrete tiles on about 15 years ago thinking the old roofing would just give me another line of defense against leaks and time has proved me right. no leaks- no problems!
