Thanks everyone for excellent advice so far!

I might have to rethink based on the weight... but the Travertine really does look the dog's wotsits - and is a pretty good price compared to many "manmades'

cheers

Hi Mal, if you're going down the traditional plaster route on one wall, use sand and cement render and leave it unskimmed. Don't let your plasterer use a gypsum basecoat as this is unsuitable to tile onto. Another solution would be to dot and dab 12.5mm plasterboard on your wall (I'm assuming it's a masonry wall), and again, leave unskimmed:thumbsup:

Hi & welcome.

As Dave says, the Montolit pads are a great way of finishing the edges without a great deal of expense.
