Tiling over thermolite blocks

[shosho]

Thank you Sir Ramic, David Howe Tiling, Whitebeam, Bubblecraft andwidler.

After 6 quotes, not kidding, and having viewed some clips on the web i am now thinking of doing this myself.

Would be grateful if you anyone could give me some advice on what material i will need to do the dryline.

Very grateful for the help already given.

You will need 12.5mm plasterboard and dry wall adhesive, you will probably find 1.80 x .900mm boards would be easier to handle in an occupied property.

I'd overboard with Wedi or plasterboard.

Thank you gents. Think will be going with plasterboard. Any particular drywall adhesive you would recommend?


Also what material would you recommend to tile the tiles to the plaster board?


Thanks

Just standard British Gypsum Drywall Addy will do

When you say what material to tile the tiles on the wall, do you mean the tile material like ceramic or porcelain or the adhesive to put them up? Things to consider when picking you tiles, make sure your tile inc adhesive & grout does not exceed 32kg pm2. That is your max weight limit for tiling onto PB. The tile you pick will also determine the adhesive to be used

Do find the dry wall adhesive, as above, tends to stay usable for longer....
