Hi new to this site but any assistance anyone could give with the following problem would be much appreciated.
I have recently removed 1930's tiles in my bathroom which came up to about four feet high all round the room.
I now want to re-tile up to ceiling height but have the following problem;
Underneath the old tiles is a rough unskimmed plaster/concrete stuff, and above (the old tiles) wall has been plastered so the top half of all the wall is about 1-2mm proud of the bottom half.
Also several chunks of concrete/plaster (im not sure what it is to be honest!) have come away revealing the brickwork underneath.
Am happy to fill the missing chunks (pollyfilla?) but how do I get the wall even - should I just get a plasterer in and have him skim the bottom half of the walls?
