    Myths and Misunderstandings: Testing the water resistance of grout

    Swimming pools are rarely tanked. They also rarely fail. The failures you see in showers tend to be a result of what the tiles are stuck to not the fact that the grout allows the passage of moisture. Plywood, plasterboard, mdf etc etc... I also still maintain that whilst grout is not resistant...

    En-suite tiling question

    If u are going to use plasterboard, it's better if you can use moisture resistant and not skim. Typically a skimmed surface has weight limits of approx 20Kg m2, whereas plasterboard without a skim has a limit of approximate 32Kg m2. Primer is really adhesive dependant, each manufacturer produces...

    Another know it all.

    I'm sure Doug will agree with me here, no plasterer would ever put under coat plaster to plasterboard , he certainly was not a plasterer [emoji85]

    Tiling over the bath

    ...it makes it easier anyway to do this. When and if you are going to put plasterboard back up, at least use the green moisture resistant plasterboard, tape the corners and use a suitable adhesive. Most importantly in my opinion use a good quality "flexible" grout to limit any hairline cracks...

    Grateful for some advice on whether I'll be okay putting 13mm Marble onto moisture resistant plasterboard. I think the weight limit for unskimmed plasterboard is 32kg? But I don't know how much a m2 of Marble + adhesive weights.

    Anyone used the new Wickes Tile Panel (not aquapanel)?

    ...They recommend tape and adhesive across the joints but they say it doesn't need to be tanked. Any thoughts or experience with it or would I be better off using normal moisture resistant plasterboard and tanking it? If it's best to tank than any particular recommendations for a tanking method?
