mosaic boarder
Hi all, i've got a bathroom to tile which is having a mosaic boarder round. The walls have been plastered and left with a brush finish, but plasters dont plaster level just flat. I have noticed that the walls are actually a bit wavey (hope you know what i mean!) i can handle this when tiling but i'm a bit worried its gona make the mosiacs very hard work. Is there anyway round this to make the mosaics level with the tiles when on?

Re: mosaic boarder
Depending on how 'wavey' the walls are and how plum, you might have to do some remedial or prep work / boarding, if it's not that bad, maybe a larger notched trowel to accommodate the difference. Hard to say without seeing how far out the walls are.

Re: mosaic boarder
