Hello everyone.
I have recently been asked to tile a bathroom for a friend. They have recently had a bath taken out and a shower cubicle put in. However, where the bath used to be which is where the cubicle now is, is basically back to brick. The shower has been installed but with a gaping hole underneath it and so this would require building up to flush. They want the new tiles to go on top of the old tiles aswell, which I must admit I dont fancy doing.
My question is would you bring the wall where the bath used to be, to level with the tiles with the use of render or would you board it ( there is abig enough gap) and also am I right to be concerned in regards to tiling on top of the old tiles , especially in an area which is constantly to be wet.
Many Thanks
