tiling upstairs bathroom

You can line walls with an aqua panel board by dabbing and screwing level but where you cant due to depths e.g. window frame, door lining and architrave. You also need to ensure you use the highest quality adhesives, grout and silicone . I recommend Mapie products from tile giant ,with the right application these products are guaranteed up to 19 years. The key rules are to -Prepare the walls so free from loose material -always use a priming agent to seal the surface of all plastered ,rendered or block walls. -Buy the correct materials to suite the background to be tiled -Adhesive should be applied in an even layer to wall/floor and tile -Grout should be finished flush and free from holes or gaps -And a big one is to seal tray with silicone before tiling and after tiling preferably with a big heavy bucket of water sat in it to create a long lasting seal I really hope this has been helpful for you and best of luck Peter Gorin Tiling co

Yes.

Yes you can do. Glue and screw to floors. Walls, again glue and screw. Tank in wet area's, or use a waterproof board. Do need more info to give the best materials and fixing method. What is present substrate on walls and floor? What tiles are you using? Regards Julian

Hi, Cement board is a very good product and is especially good for shower areas as it is unaffected by moisture. Also, if you have a wall that is older and it is not possible to replace it then this board will strengthen the wall. I would suggest screwing the board at 100-150mm centres. Alternatively, if you have a sound stud work wall, you could use moisture resistant plasterboard (normally green in colour although varies from different manufacturers). This is a much cheaper option and can be a lot easier to install. Screw at the same centres. Hope this helps

Preferably yes, but if already plastered, use a good waterproof adhesive and grout

Cement board is always a good idea as it helps good adhesion for the tiles.

cement boards are for mixing up mortar outside or in so that the surface does not get any on the floor while mixing
