Going back to the original issue, as the skimmed plaster board seems to be fixed with dry wall dabs, the solution would be to rip it off, re-board and then fix your travertine.

Hi Antonio
in the UK, we plaster over sand and cement, backing plasters and plasterboards. we have done this for decades.
many countries just dry line / tape and joint. we are catching on now.
stone tiling and large format tiles on walls has only really took off over the past 10 years or so, so we need to address this when building new houses..

we are always a bit behind in the uk qith tiling considerations compared to italy, usa, germany, australia etc...Tiling has become more and more popular and we need to address the considerations very quickly.

As above if it's skimmed then the weight limit for the surface of the paper on the PB drops to 20kg's per sqr mtr..

Pull all the PB off and reboard ..

It's brilliant mate....
You get a perfectly flat piece of plasterboard......let a plasterer skim it and then it's all over the place.....especially round the window!!

How many times can I like this comment .
