Hiya all,
Is it right that if tiling directly onto plasterboard then you should tile on the reverse of the board ? (Brown side)
Or is tiling onto the side you usually skim ok ?
Is any preperation required ?
Thanks in advance

Tile the usual side not the brown, prime with acrylic primer as per instructions on the bag of adhesive
