Will be tiling a wet room up to 1.8m high with newly plaster above. Some of the walls below arent that great and im thinking installing no more ply right around. What i want to know, seeing as ill be 6mm out from the wall and ill be tiling upto the 1.8m height, is there a bead that will cover the void aswell as covering the top of tile or is it just a matter of filling this area with grout.
Discuss is there a bead in the Canada area at TilersForums. The USA and UK Tiling Forum (Also now Aus, Canada, ROI, and more)

Why not just board it to the ceiling?

1.8 isn't very high for a wet room or any type of shower .the wall would get wet with water bouncing of my head .

Right I know it's not my job and it's not my room but I think that will look pants .

I meet some customers who have some odd ideas about where to stop tiles and I suppose most of these are to save money but I believe it is part of our job to advise customers on how something should be done to be aesthetically pleasing as it can be. I would probably in this situation advise full height in wet area and 1/2 height elsewhere .

Lets be honest theres nowt up with 1.8 m high and the shower area fully tiled .
We have absolutely no idea what the customer is thinking , maybe he wants to stick pva and glitter above the tiles to make it look pretty snd sparkly
As fo the bead , before now ive put 2 flat edge trims back to back , stuck together with no more nails, left to set and cut to size and put in .
