:yikes: Alittle stresssssssed but not too bad
Ok i'm not sure whether i'm luck or not, but i'm wondering whether the stuff/surface underneath the tiles is just a sand and cement mix or just an undercoat plaster.
I'm about to tile over with travertine tiles and know (thanks to evryone on here) that they need to go on one of the following, straight onto backer board (best option but most expensive) straight onto 12.5 plaster board or onto a render coat...
I was going to strip back to original wall and then dot and dab plaster board on, my brother the plumber seems to think it is render...
It's grey with two coats...the undercoat is quite thick layer with alot of keying all over and the top coat is very thin and smooth.
I have stripped back the top coat...do i have to strip back the second. It's not as hard as concrete but it's tougher than the bonding stuff i've used in the past.
What do youi guys think?
