Hi all,
Following a significant leak from a shower over a bath, I'm currently ripping off rotten plasterboard and have Knauf Aquapanel (cement) boards waiting to go up onto the studs. As a belt and braces approach (I'd rather spend the extra ££ for peace of mind) I'm planning to tank the area too.
So, am wondering what tanking system you guys recommend over the Aquapanel? I've read a few posts which suggest you need a layer of tile adhesive first? Is that only is using the sheet membrane tanking such as the Homelux? I was thinking of using the BAL tanking, or the Dunlop kit, but happy to use homelux or similar instead.
Any advice appreciated.
Cheers,
Gareth
