Hello all,
I am re-doing my bathroom and have taken off all the tiles, pretty much 2/3 rds of the room was tiled and will be retiled in the same place. When taking off the tiles some of the plaster underneath came off too so there are patches of bare brick, thin plaster layers and other patches of what seems to be plaster in good condition and not loose. I am planning on re tiling and so the replaster job doesn't need to be perfect but I want to it to be sound.
My questions are
i) Do I need to remove the good plaster patches so that I am down to the bare brick all over?
ii) Do I need to coat the brick work and good plaster patches (if they can stay) with a pva mix.
Many thanks
