Tiles on timber
Mrs M wants a tile-topped plinth to go around the bath, under the rim. 4" x 2" CLS laid flat, lap joints at corners, with substantial supports under. As it won't get soaking wet, am I safe in sticking the tiles straight onto the timber, or should I use tilebacker board on top of the timber? I have built a similar plinth, using timber/MDF , and had no trouble with it over 15 years.
I started out with nothing, I still have most of it.
