Question:

covering existing tile backsplash?

I am really sick of my tile backsplash. It's small white tiles. Is there an easier and less expensive way to cover them up instead of removing them?

Answer:

there are so many choices you can go with the 1st suggestion but remember the depth of your outlets and switches will be much deeper or you can have a section of the old tile removed (like in a 4strip ) and put some glasstiles in that section to update your look -you can also remove random tiles and insert new ones in place or what i recently did for a client was to cover the tile backsplash with stainless steel sheets they also do sell an epoxy to cover them with to change the color
get the tiles out is way much cheaper then to cover another layer.You see when its broken we just throw it away cos its really not that expensive.If I'm your contractor I would make a easy kill.haha
You can tile over them if you use a bonding mortar such as Flexbond you can get at any tile supply
