Discuss New Bathroom preparation in the Bathroom Tiling Advice area at TilersForums.com.

Hi all
We finally got it together to do a renovation build and the bathrooms are boarded out with water-resistant boards - and the builder has skimmed them, which I was not expecting.
But funds are running out and I intend to finish the bathrooms myself. How best to prepare the shower area for a finish - considering some higher end waterproof boards or tiling. Do these need a waterproof finish behind - like Mapei shower kits or wet-room tanking. It is NOT a wet-room, so ordinary shower tray and fittings.
