Hi, a few tiles keep falling off in the shower enclosure.

Any tips on the best material to use to replace the plaster. Pink area in the middle.

Thinking sand and cement (4/1 parts) or aquapanel piece screwed in.

thanks,

pras

That’s knackered tbh , even got black mould growing, been a lot of water ingress.
A quick patch up won’t solve it for the long term.

Unfortunately looks like water ingress..I would always advise against those kind of Tiles for use in a shower area as it’s very hard to make them water tight with such a tight joint which I suspect is where the main issue would be
I’m afraid Tiles off and re-tile is the only solution ..“.Impo”
