The room I am going to skim is a bathroom (always start with an easy room eh :? ). This will include "wet" walls (right by the shower), and all walls will be tiled onto. I read here , number 21, that you can't use standard plaster in a wet area. In the experience of all of you, what is the best way to tackle this? The base material on the wet walls appears to be breeze block.
 
You need Aquapanel which is a tile backing board for walls made from glass fibre reinforced cement and will not rot or warp,available from Wickes.
