The panel I've made is too large to slot down the existing grooves. It is only a width of 25/30 inches.

I've just used some existing decking boards as a fence panel and just need to know what screws and plugs to use, please? Should I screw to pieces of wood on first and then the panel to the wood, please? Thank you.

So to clarify, I just use the BAL on the water areas (bath, shower etc.)? Do I need to cover the rest of the plaster with anything? Thanks.

It's just a standard bath with a shower valve in the wall. Silly question maybe, but what products shall I use to 'tank' the bathroom, please? I notice BAL do a full kit or will acrylic primer suffice? Is there an idiot's guide to 'tanking' online, please? I've looked around but no joy...
