Having chiselled off all the old tiles from the bathroom, I have a messy
surface with much plaster skim missing and the odd hole in the

plasterboard.
Whilst its not too bad for level (the new tiles' adhesive should even it
out) I am concerned that the new tiles might not stick in places. Do I

need
to cover the broken walls with PFA solution or some such?

TIA

Scrape adhesive off wall using 4" stanley long handle scraper. Repair holes
in plasterboard by cutting larger hole in plasterboard and then fitting
repair piece in using battens. Tape and bed joints at repairs. Repair
missing skim coat by applying skim coat where there is none. At this stage
your wall should be in near original condition. Use a small roller to apply
50/50 PVA / water solution, and you should be ready to set out for tiling.
