Default Plastering up a shower


"chris" wrote in message

Hi guys,

Ive finally installed my thermostatic shower, and im pretty sure its

stopped
leaking, but now i need to plaster (then tile) over it., Wh it did leak

and
the breezeblocks got soaked the paint started peeling off the adjoining
toilet wall (as youd expect), is there out there any plaster/waterproof
sealent mixture milarky that will give me peace of mind when it comes to
plastering over the pipes and channels ive made for them. The only other
way would be to plyboard it and then tile, but this would probably be even
more hassle than just filling it all in

Any ideas Appreciated as the missus has started

(thats plaster advice...not a hitman for the missus !)

In addition to the other good advice, why are you using plaster?
If you are going to tile over it, you are probably better off with sand and
cement.
This is a good base for tiles, and doesn't suffer as much as plaster if it
gets damp.
