Hi,

I'm tiling my shower area and the tile will come to the end of the wall where a corner beading is, as the end and other side is being plastered.

Do you just tile up to the edge of beading as if skimming, and finish with a silicone besd? Along tile edge?

i usually use L stainless trim .
skim the other side first, and finish the tile trim just inside the lip of the angle bead. sometimes i run the grout up the edge between the L trim and bead or sometimes silicone, depends on the grout colour.
there are several options.

Cheers mate!

Do I have to skim all of the green moisture board or can I tile straight onto it?

So basically I skim and then fit a separate tile edge using adhesive?

Edit: sorry I may have misunderstood.
So I skim the end wall (as per pic) and leave the wall facing us (on pic) as is and tile straight onto it?
