Has the room been tanked? is that the reason the first 4 foot is rendered?
a problem I have with dot and dab board idea is that the bath head end would need to have various holes and channels in it to fit concealed valves and pipework, would the dot and dabbed board retain its integrity when its essentially been cut in half with a big hole in the middle. I guess it will depend on how close together and where the 'dots' are. I assume that as the render goes up 4' I shan't need to tank it. 12.5mm board OK? 'moisture resistant board needed?Hi Joe

If it was me I would remove all lime plaster in the room and any other patched up areas. (Leave the render in situ) I would then put fresh plasterboard on all stud walls and then dot and dab fresh plasterboard onto the outside walls so it is flush with the existing render. Depending on what weight of tile you intend to install would then determine if the outside walls should be skimmed to give you a nice flat surface to tile on to.
Hope it helps
