Hi everyone Im new to this site and have done a bit of tiling before but Im stuck here.
I have been tiling my bathroom for my folks and upon taking the tiles off the wall behind its was very wet like damp with a bit of mould ( its a solid wall like block with skim) and I also noticed that some of the tiles when I knocked on em sounded hollow, now my tiling course told me that its the tiles "boasting"? Anyways the tiles are off an the wall has thankfully dried out but now the lower part (that was wet) is all dusty as in the plaster is rub off in your hands?
Which leads me to my next question, how do I seal the wall and what with, before you say yes I have read the threads about tanking, and not using PVA but I noticed no one has mentioned you can get a "waterprrof PVA" now would this solve that pva problem?
I need help asap as we have no shower atm and only a bath so help would be mucho appreciated
Thanks for helping me
