I am in the middle of a bathroom replacement and would appreciate some input. I am putting in a bath with a shower over it. The end with the shower on it has been dry lined with aquapanel and skimmed so I can paint the bit I'm not tiling on. The back wall is a new partition which will be boarded with aquapanel and tiled on. The remaining wall (opposite the end with the shower on) is the one which I'm unsure about.
It is currently plaster and lathe. Do I :
- Just tile straight on the existing wall because it's not really going to get that wet anyway.
- Screw aquapanel straight on to this wall, then tile on top (there are only 2 vertical studs to screw to though, and the plaster and lathe is nearly an inch thick).
- Dry line with 2x2 battens and aquapanel, then tile.
any ideas?
thanks dan
