I have a question for the experts. Currently doing a bathroom renovation and my tiler tells me that he cannot tile the floor until the aqualine is installed on the wall? Would that be right? Can he not leave a 10mm gap between the wall studs and the commencement of the floor tile and tile the floor,

Sounds about right, is there any rush to get the flooring done first? Usually the floor coverings get done last to avoid paint spillage etc.....Fraser Wilkinson

Plus waterproofing needs to be done before tiling.
