that will easily go through ceramic for you, dont use hammer action and use an offcut of plasterboard if you have any to use as a template. just use the drill bit through the board first away from the wall, then hold the board up at the wall and be very patient when doing it..... dont rush!

normal drywall screws will do it.

i agree, plus id srew the boards up not nail them. personal preference

Well said! Immature comments to follow as usual........

With that many posts & thanks i dont think johnD is a DIY'er!

BAL is a high spec product! pic 3 is of the first tile above the bath??? if so thats terrible as the joint is far to big and shouldnt even be grouted!!! it should be siliconed before the tiles are fitted and then once the baths filled siliconed again to finish off. you have every right to...

BINGO!!! MUST BE FLEXIBLE ADHESIVE AND GROUT. There is so much crap out there that will last about 5 minutes! Be careful they havnt used crappy adhesive and grout to save on materials, i know they obviously are running a business but you got to use quality materials which are longer laster...

trowel size depends on condition of wall also.... worse the wall and bigger the tile= bigger the trowel, You will use more adhesive also. (use flexible powder addy) Think and measure carefully before mixing your addy, measure and make marks on walls and avoid tiny slither cuts as they will...
