Bathroom Fitting

Can I Tiles bathroom and just put it over any wall or is there wall prep?

Anonymous user 09/03/2024 - 2.43 PM

Is it true that the wall in my bathroom can't just have tiles put on because it is made out of a non waterproof plaster? This information given to me by a council worker when it was a council home.

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Whenever we are doing a new bathroom or refurb, we always strip back to stud and add new aqua boards, water resistant materials should then be used i.e adhesive, grout etc.

Best practise, to use aqua board and around baths and shower tray i always use classic seal which insures if water does get behind the tiles it runs back onto the tray/bath
