Hi, will my mosaic border increase the risk of adhesive failing?

[tonymacprods]

appreciate all the feedback....how tricky would it be to remove the border before grouting?? in my experience well stuck tiles just don't come away from gyproc, they take the gyproc with them...and I don't want to end up with holes in the plasterboard....i'm guessing I probably just need to live with it?

If they have'nt been fixed for that long they will come off easy

possible solution............if you cant remove the glass tiles without damaging the plasterboard can you get a thinner glass mosaic and fix over the existing ones making it flush? not ideally the way to do a brand new install but it would solve the issue

well i've learned something!! i guess each job you "manage" should hopefully improve on the last one. I feel a bit better that there is consenus on the water defence being unaffected. I can't face the stress of removing the border in case I end up with burst gyproc, although it doesn't look ideal the level of the border and the layout of the room means you're not "drawn" too it too much. Once you see this dog toothing (can't understand where that name comes from) it all seems so obvious, unfortunately my tiler started the job in the exact reverse, eg put the mosaic up first then the field tiles. Anyway not the end of the world, as I said the next bathroom will be perfect. Some great pics on here fellas some good work being done.
