I have ripped out all fittings and have an uneven/lose wooden boareded floor. The walls are part plaster board and part brick/plaster.
What is the best way of doing the following;
Prep the walls for tiling, should I replace all plaster board where I have damaged removing the old shower or simply patch and repair. Does the paint need to be removed to ensure a good bond with tiling adhesive

Secondly, how is it best to prepare the floor for tiling and a new shower tray, what is the best way of getting the floor level. The original shower tray was fixed to 3x4 but I dont want such a high lip on the shower and would like to put in a lower profile shower tray. If i overlay the whole floor with 18mm ply how do I get this level and the floor has a different heights.

Thoughts most welcome
