Hi
I have removed all the skirting board from my bathroom prior too tileing and now have a 6 inch cap all round with about 3 inch depth. Whats the best way to fill this please.
Thanks

If your bathroom walls are dry and there's no damp at all in the walls where you have removed the skirting. then I would cut plaster-board strips to fit in the gap and stick them in with adhesive and build it out to finish flush with the wall. Then you can tile over the top.....

Thanks Roy

what type of adhesive should I use ? And could I use a finishing plaster to cover the tiny bits ?

cheers

use dry wall adhesive. this can be used a filler too.
