    Just done my bathroom. Make sure to watch out for bumps or raised bits as it is hard to tile on when the wall is uneven

    So skimming is not necessary or can you skim the plasterbord and then tank?

    • @ZRKREVIEWS
      @ZRKREVIEWS  Рік тому +3

      Yes skimming not necessary, you can fill up all holes and gaps then tank it. Then you can tile or use wall panels

      you can apply this waterproof tape in all gaps and corners etc before applying the Aqua Defense, after installation of shower trays need use a silicone waterproof sealant.

    Great video! So you don't really need moisture boards then once you take this step then Bro??

    • @ZRKREVIEWS
      @ZRKREVIEWS  2 роки тому +3

      No not really as you've tanked up the plasterboard creating a waterproof barrier. Other option is to use which i wish i knew before but expensive is to install tile backer boards it has insulation properties and waterproof. And another option is to use ThermalDry Paint.

      totally agree.... money for tape, money for tanking liquid... might as well have used tile backer board in the first place... much better...

    Dude you don’t have to do all of this 🤣 I mean it’ll never leak but it’s an overkill. You only need to cover the actual shower area

    Please don't follow this guys instructions. There is just so much wrong with this job, it will leak and fail and have to be completely ripped out and redone properly in a very short period of time.
