Please help!!!
I am about to tile my new bathroom shower cubicle, which has 12mm standard plasterboard walls. I have heard a lot about "tanking" the walls before putting the tiles up and am a bit lost.
I had thought i could just purely use a waterproof adhesive and grout, which would keep the water from penertrating the tiles and getting onto the wall underneath. The shower is fed from the combi boiler and has a fair pressure but nothing like a proper power shower.
Can you please advise if i can safely go ahead and put my tiles onto the plasterboard wall without the need to do some "tanking".
