Happy New year Everyone,
Don't have much experience in tiling , I'm in process of gutting out my old bathroom now, replacing piping and everything else in it in the process therefore making a total mess out of my walls. Also removed some tiles and now the old base under the tiles looks pretty terrible and with lots and lots of holes in old plasterboard from when removing the old tiles.
I'm going to be doing every wall except ceiling in tiles and now I'm not even sure if I can just put on new tiles on my old walls in case they just don't stick or the holes/lumps create a further problems?
at first I thought I was just going to rub down all the lumps/bumps and fill out the most problematic areas and just put tiles over everything...Now I'm not so sure about that
I have made some pictures, was wondering if anyone who has some good experience in tiling could tell me is the base good enough for tiles or I would be better off just doing a skim coat of plaster on everything to smooth everything out and create a good base for tiles? Work wise This would set me back about a day to plaster every wall and few extra days until it dries so not really that problematic.
