Discuss 1 wall is not plumb (photo) in the Canada Tile Advice area at TilersForums.com.

Hi all, i have removed all the tiles in bathroom and had it skimmed. Before i done this i noted that one of the walls, the bath/shower corner is not plumb.

As you can see from the photo of previous tiling job they started with a fall tile against the wall by the bath and as it gets higher they have had to add a slither.

I was away when plasterer came and had a lot on so didnt get to speak to him about getting it straight so think i will still be off (but i havent checked yet).

Im installing 200x100 metro tiles, if there is anything i can do to fix/help it i need to do it before tanking. Ive already waited 4 weeks for plaster to dry so dont want to do anything that will mean waiting another 4 weeks before i can tank. Was wondering if u could fill the void with plasterboard (dot and dab)

Or if I plan enough ahead to so i dont get a sligher by having a full tile against the wall at the top so that the lower i get the tile just gets a bit smaller... would it be really noticeable?

Thanks all.
