Can you cement wall tiles directly onto plasterboard without having the board skimmed first?


Question asked by: stephy

This is a good question, and the answer is that you should go and talk to an expert at a diy store to get a confirmation but my initial suspicion would be that you can't do it this way... but best to check with an expert just in case I'm wrong!

YOU CAN APPLY WALL TILES TO PLASTERBOARD BUT YOU MUST SEAL WITH POLYBOND FIRST . MAKE SURE YOU COVER WHOLE AREA BEAR IN MIND THAT IF YOU WANT TO REMOVE THE TILES AT A LATER DATE THEY WILL NOT COME OFF AS EASILY AS IF THE BOARD WAS PLASTERED
