Hi All,

I am after some advice.

I have removed tiles from my bathroom but have been left with very poor walls where the adhesive has brought the plaster away.

It looks like it is blocks which have been plastered onto directly so cannot reboard and tile onto that directly which is what I have always done previously. I have been suggested to skim over but not with plaster with plasterboard adhesive or tile adhesive to get a flat surface and then tile onto that but not sure if this is good advise? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have included pictures.

TIA
Richard

If it makes you feel any better I have spent 4 hours todays hacking off painted skim and hemp tape off a huge plaster board wall 'cos it was crap. Only went there to assess and write a shopping list!
