Hi I wonder whether someone can help me out. A few months ago a had a new bath installed, now everything has been fine apart from a few weeks ago I noticed when sitting in the bath I could see a gap where the seal attaches to the wall from the bath. At first I thought it needed to be resealed...

doh! just realised this is in the wrong, thread and should be in woodwork. Can someone move this please! Thanks Stan..

Thanks Richard, I suspected the case as i'd prefer moisture not to attack the plasterboard and so ive just gone out and got some plaster. Also i'm going to remove the rest of the old plaster with tile adhesive off tonight and plaster the whole lot. Just wish me luck!! Stan..

The leak was fixed quite some time ago, but haven't had a chance to fix it. So got grief of the misses this week so guess what i'm doing this weekend :D Thanks all for your comments. Stan..

Thanks Zampa, I had a closer look last night and I think you are indeed correct in that it looks like paper tape so I will need to strip the area down and stick the tape back on. Then paint the area over, now ive got some polyfilla basecoat, do you think that will do the job? Then as...

Can some one help me please. We had a problem with water dripping from a pipe in the bathroom some time ago and it caused water damage on the ceiling in the living room. Now when this first happened I was told by someone to cover the patch with gloss but this didn't really make any...

Well I placed a base coat 2 hours ago on the wall and so far so good, lets hope when it fully dries out the wall will be fine. Finger crossed :lol: Stan..
