I will be tiling my bathrooms walls soon.
I have two walls that are stud walls and I have used Hardiebacker board for these. The other two walls are breezeblock with what looks like a plaster skim over the top.
I have bought travertine tiles which are around 10-12mm thick (I am not at home and can't remember the exact thickness, but I'm sure they are 12mm).
Looking at the weights it appears that I can't (or shouldn't) tile directly on to the plaster as I will be over the recommended guidelines.
Is my best solution to remove the plaster back to the breezeblock and then fix hardieback board to these walls? If so what is the best way of applying them? Do I use some form of adhesive combined with screwing into the breezeblock?
I'd appreciate some advice.
Thanks in advance,
Daz
