Bad condition wall preparation

[Ceramico tiling]

if the render is stuck tight you can just use rapidset ardex or mapei etc and make the wall good.Let it dry and then tile. I have never had a problem doing this.You can use a feather edge or batton and float it into the patches..but use a proper primer

Thanks for that. Apologies for being stupid but can you give me exact details of the products you are advising? I'm a bit new to this and am a little unsure!
Thanks!

I would dot and dab, it is the easiest and quickest solution to that problem I reckon.

Knock it back to to wall? Start again? Depends on new furniture? Ideally, wreck it out, re-board/plaster and gain some space! it's bound to be old multi-plastered DIY plastered walls hanging way too much weight as it is without slapping dri-wall adhesive, plasterboard, adhesive and tiles on top of it??
