I found some cracks in our bathroom tile grout behind the bath tap & there's mould behind the few tiles I've removed already.
I've never done any tiling before so am a total novice at this and would value comments/corrections.
My plan so far is to keep removing tiles until there's no more mould, then cut out the backing board behind (plus a bit extra), then replace with new board, then apply adhesive, fit tiles with correct spacers, then grout (I have some Mapei Waterproof Fix & Grout Tile Adhesive), then seal once dry with Vitrex Grout and Tile Sealer.
Anything I've missed? The rest of the tiles seem secure to the wall but do I need to secure the tiles with battens as I go to avoid them all falling off?
