Hi everyone

[liu83]

As a learning DIY fan, I would like to learn from the professionals on this forum. I decided to refurbish our bathroom and would be looking for advice on waterproofing, tanking a bathtub. Thank you, Lilia

Thanks, never thought about the photos. I wanted a roman style bathtub. The idea
was to make it with the blocs and tank it with Ardex s7 then tile it. probably crazy I know,
wished I just bought a bath now. Well, it will be quite an excitement to rip it all out if I
don't succeed.

Tanking? No need for that my friend. Not with cement based grout.

(Only kidding, make sure you tank it!)

Alternator belt has snapped in brum (Deano's way I think)

Waiting for the AA. Just had my trousers down on a sign up fee. Rammed it right in and my backs already killing me.

in my day we had to build our own shower trays.
I wouldnt use thermalite blocks if I was you as they absorb water
If the budget is healthy have a look at 50mm thick wedi board.If not use lbc bricks,cheep and cheerful and good for building airade shelters.
