Yes, but the floor needs to be rigid to prevent movement. Surfaces such as wooden floorboards and chipboard will either need to be replaced or have a second sub floor overlaid. Covering in plywood and primed, tile backer board or special tile matting is sufficient. This must be laid before fixing the floor tiles.

Generally floor tiles are not cold underfoot, especially when laid on a wooden subfloor. In a colder location like a conservatory or kitchen there is always the option of installing insulation under the tile, or underfloor heating.

You usually have to wait six weeks to tile (or lay any floor covering) after a new concrete floor is laid, (allowing one day drying time per 1mm of thickness of concrete) however by using a fast track adhesive, this can be reduced to three or four days.

Yes, this will acheieve the best tiled result, but only after a drying period. The plaster will also need to be sealed and primed. I would recommend also using a tanking solution if the area will be exposed to mositure or water.

Yes, but the weight of the tiles may be an issue. We would have to investigate your wall structure to ensure that the combined weight of the tile does not exceed the building recommendation for the type of wall you have.
