    Dot & Dab on brick walls for NoMorePly

    Why not use plasterboard or marmox? Nomoreply is a gypsum board if I remember right, last time we used it we had to prime each side before it came into contact with adhesive, so alot more work involved using this!

    Subbing

    depends on the builder, and make some provision for snagging, if the houses arent selling then they will snag you until they do sell. Johnsons ceramic tile ranges for new build are **** frankly, cheap biscuit and thin glaze, a lot of hassle these jobs. you shouldn't pay more than 89p+VAT for...
