Discuss Tiling a plastered wall info needed. in the Canada area at TilersForums. The USA and UK Tiling Forum (Also now Aus, Canada, ROI, and more)
Hi all. Looking for some advice on tiling a chimney breast with split face tiles. Is it ok to use these sort of tiles on a newly plastered surface and if so what kind of preparation and adhesive would be recommended.
Depends how heavy they are....
Best not to exceed 20kg per m2 onto plastered walls..
....and let the plaster dry out first.
Don' forget to remove the layer of laitance/dust and solid bed the tiles.
Also, prime first and use a powder adhesive
