My mum lives in a maisonette with an open balcony about 3' 6" x 6'. Its got a concrete floor covered with a piece of lino. She wants something more permanent using tiles. What would be the best way of doing this? Cover the whole area with cement and lay the tiles on top, or cement at the joins of each tile filling the space in between with sand.

Just tile as normal, but use the right adhesive. This kind of thing
Do it as you would say a concrete kitchen floor using a cement based adhesive and waterproof grout. Any tiles suitable for that job will be fine outdoors. You'll get everything you need at either a tile specialist or a shed. The adhesive will come in a bag and need mixing with water - not the ready mixed stuff.
I were brung up less than a mile from there...
It takes yer back dunnit....
Thanks, never occurred to me to use adhesive!

remove lino, use floor tile adhesive.
