Hi,
We are just starting out having our bathroom refitted and would like some advise on the wall tiling.
We are to supply materials and are thinking of 500 x 200 crematic tiles with some 300 x 300 feature mosaic vertical bands.
The issue is the adhesive, waterproofing and grout as the tiler will have a number of surfaces he has to work on...
1 wall is an existing skimmed and painted block wall.
1 wall is a exisitng skimmed painted plasterboard wall
2 walls will be new = just plasterboarded - the junction of these 2 walls will be where the shower is to go.
The shower will need waterproofing - so a tanking kit needed...
What do i need to do to the existing walls before work starts and is there one adhesive out there that will work on all of the above surfaces or do I need to get him different adhesives for each surface.
Many thanks
