Weight limit

They were looking at ceramic to start with so I guess mentioning to go for that instead of the porcelain that would do the job

Not at all, most customers i come across with this issue are more than happy for some extra prep work to make it ok. If they are not then i am probably better not getting involved with them anyway.

So if I had a job tiling a bathroom walls 18m2 on to plaster and my tiles was 22kg what would you suggest I do about it?

Do it right, or let someone else do it wrong

Don't you just love it when the customer tells you that its all nice and smooth / flat because they have had it plastered.

If it was a nice flat wall id probably use 2kg pm of adhesive thays y I have estimated 3/4 kg

prep the walls to get them flat, then you would be within the weight limit......better than packing out with the adhesive and risk going over the recommended bed thickness..

Talk is cheap LOL

Just tile it... as long as it's bonded well to substrate and not loose or hollow.. crack on..

Well all love 100% jobs but in the real world it is not so , you know your limits and what can and cannot be done.

Cheers dave. The wall is sound and well secured but was a little unsure.
