i guess thats kind of what one of the other guys has suggested we do

what would have been different? I have one more bathroom to do yet!

The paint is a matt white paint

is that from experience? I'm not sure that will look the same or if it will stand the test of time

the tiles are not bevelled so it should be easily achieved, they're really flat...

This is what someone else was complaining about this is what i don't want to have on my hands so just trying to understand it as best as possible

If i put these 6mm boards a little above the top of the tiles (10-15mm), what would we fill that gap with?

surely you can get the plaster and tile flush. They did it in the finished version. It's extremely flush and even with your hand going up and down the wall, you cannot feel a difference. The only difference is in the different textures of the wall/tile

i don't get why you would just give up on something you want to achieve for a easier route? A bit of research could give a much better result than the easy route!

what about the skimming and protecting the current tiles/grout/bathroom fixtures ?

The area isn't that big so a few boards won't break the bank. No point in penny pinching with the final look. How deep is skimming? 3mm should be fine?

I think using the board you suggested (6mm) with the plaster making up the 3-4mm to be flush with the tile. And if i pretty much sit this 6mm board on top of the tile it won't crack after a few months??

So some of the tiles have already been grouted! So this could be an issue and is another hurdle to achieving this look. Any suggestions?

So put this board 10-15mm above the tiles and skim over? What about the gap. Sorry, i'm not too technical so piecing it together as i go along and i need to explain it to the plasterers, i don't wanna leave it down to chance....
