How do I replace a wall of tiles in my bathroom with just regular painted walls?
Right now I have a lovely shade of pink on my tiled walls in my bathroom. I’d like to get rid of the tile on the walls NOT surrounding the bathtub. Can I just remove the tile and plaster over it? The walls are concrete (or something like that. they are not dry wall). I’d like to know if I could plaster or something like that and paint over it?? Thanks!

You can just knock out the tiles.There is a trick to plastering smoothly-maybe you should have that part done by a Drywall person-otherwise you will see a line.
Remove the tile and they sell and thin drywall you can put over where the tiles where and that way there are no repairs other that whatever seams you may have to fill after putting up the drywall. Then you just paint . this would be easier then trying to make that wall look smooth.
U kon doen dat, of u een stuk van drywall kon enkel opzetten (of na het verwijderen van de tegels, of enkel hen verlaten en drywall over hen opzetten).
Het zou gemakkelijker zijn te eindigen dan moetend een volledige muur schuren die u pleisterde.
It is probably a block wall. The tiles should pop off easily. There are a few ways to treat what you will find under the tile. Probably the easiest would be to attach furring strips to the block wall and then install 1/2″ drywall.
A plaster wall would be pretty easy too, if you can get the block wall really clean after you remove the tiles. If the block wall is pretty bad, you can do a two-coat (brown coat/skim coat) finish also.
Haben Sie die, Fliesen hoch zu lassen erwogen und sie neu zu streichen? Sie k?nnen eine spezielle Farbenz?ndkapsel kaufen, die Ihnen erlaubt, ?ber Fliesen derzeit zu malen, w?rden sparen viel harte Arbeit?
you can buy a special primer to paint on the tile, let it dry over night, then you can use dry wall mud to make the walls smooth enough to paint. this it the easiest and cleanest way to do this.
