Hi everyone,
Just looking for some advice? I am a reasonably newbie tiler but reasonably competent and have decided what I really need in my life is a shower over my bath (was just a bath previously).
There was a row of three tiles above the tub and then just painted wall so the solution...

hello,
just need advise about the need of tanking the bathroom floor.
1930s semi if that helps;), mosaic floor tiles already bought.
Also we planned the shower over the bath. Again: is the tanking, waterproofing needed on the wall?
I would be really grateful for your thoughts.
Thank you.
Ok if you had to do this what product would you use and would you use ?it before the render/screed or after ?, i 'am looking for cheaper -end of the market , and a link would be great please !! :thumbsup:

Can a tanking membrane be used on an already wet substrate?? Will it stick?? Never used one and have little knowledge of them.
I know liquid epoxy DPM 's can but not sure if tanking membranes work the same way.
thanks in anticipation once again
Hi,
I'm installing a shower cubicle using a marmox showerlay.
I have boarded the walls with aquaboard. After placing in the showerlay using adhesive I will use the waterproofing tape and compound to seal around the edges.
Question is do I also need to tank the aquaboard?
Also when tiling...
Hello,
I am about to install my new shower tray. It is a large type, 1800mm x 1000mm. I need to replace my floor for marine play and bed on cement. This part I'm ok with.
However. The walls, (fresh plastered over green plasterboards) I'm not so sure of.
We will probably decide on a natural...

Hi guys,
I was wondering if anyone had used the Aquaseal wetroom tanking kit? Price seems really competitive. But if it's not fit for purpose then it's no good!

Hello there.
This is my first post but I have been viewing this site for a couple of years.
I need to tank a floor with tilesafe. Can this be used with walls coated with Bal WP1? I am thinking of the compatibility - at the floor/wall junction where the tilesafe reinforcing tape is applied to...

Hi all,
I was wondering which of the available "tanking kits in a box" you all prefer?, are they all similar to use time wise/ease of use or are they are all much of a muchness?, and is it best to stick to say a Bal kit if using Bal addy or Mapei if using Mapei?
Thanks in advance all!
Hi All, just a quick question?, in say, for example a domestic bath/shower room would you still tank the walls when you have installed Hardiebacker or Gypsum Tilebacker board onto the studwork or do you only tank when installing onto normal plasterboard where replacement isn't an option?
Thanks...

Hi Guys
I'm just about to tank a shower cubicle, I have my shower tray and shower installed.
However in BAL's documentation I can't find out how long between coats you'll need to
leave it.
Also any hints, tips or general advise on tanking would be greatly appreciated.
Kindest Regards
Simon.
