Having just knocked down a dividing wall, I find that one floor (already insulated with Marmox) is LOWER than the other...

Hi,
I'm after some advice on preparing the walls and floor of a bathroom for tiling. I want waterproof boards around the shower, and I'm currently going with Marmox. First question is on the stiffness of the Marmox boards: are 12.5mm boards really OK to go straight onto stud walls? There won't...

I'm just about to tile a Marmox pre formed tray
done it loads using 50x50 mosaics

Just ripped a shower out and the walls were standard ply just tiled straight on top (hence all the tiles falling off!). It would be handy to grab another couple of mm due to the new tiles being a lot thicker, so I was going to use 10mm Marmox board. Sounds like it's suitable according to Marmox...

I needed to replace 3 tiles and in removing the old ones the backer board has got damaged - the tiles were on Marmox board so it damages fairly easily. I'm guessing there is no way to effectively repair the board so I think the way forward would be to remove the existing board that is exposed...

Is it okay to Dot n Dab 6mm Marmox to walls (screw fixing through the dabs) or does it need to be thicker than the 6mm?
Edit. Answered my own question - Marmox web site says 12.5mm for dot n dab, any thickness for continuous bed.
