Tiling Front step

Just had my drive and front path done and as you can see the front step is showing its age so seems a bit silly not to get it done as well.

Am I ok tilling on top of these tiles or would you knock them off, also what tiles do I need for outside I would like some slate looking ones if possible. and finally what do think it would cost for someone to do it as Its the front of the house I want it done right.

 

Looks like they're falling off anyway so personally yes, remove them, the drive looks like pattered concrete as opposed to block pavers, if I had done the job in pavers I would have replaced the step in the same style, an alternative would be to get a few natural patio stones an cut them to size then cement them onto your step.

 

is it clear off your dpm[damp proof membrane]
looks less than the required 6"

 

Don't be afraid of raising the threshold level up on the step to lose the pvc door frame a bit. Give yourself less to trip over.
