Rendered walls in bathroom.

Rendering or re sheeting bathroom walls this step represents the main preparation for the waterproofing and tiling.
Hi firstly i am a plastering rendering amateur only hard walling up to this point.
We are in the process of doing our bathroom because for the old plasters condition we have removed back to brick.
Just wondering how practicable and cost effective they are instead of tiles.
You need to make sure you can get you walls as level or plumb as possible otherwise it will become much more difficult at the waterproofing and tiling stage.

Our bathroom wall is rendered painted on top of masonry substrate.
I ve seen pictures of rendered walls at it looks great.
3 walls are your standard house brick and the 4th is an internal wall made of black 35mm thick air brick nasty stuff but not an option to remove.
Just wondering if you guys can help me out with two questions i have.
For some walls in other rooms i will certainly use your suggestion of dot and dab plasterboard not least because we need to cover some 1960 s artex decor.
This helps improve the wall s appearance structural integrity and resilience.
Render compounds also protect the weaker underlying material from heat dirt and excess moisture.
Although some people still apply a bonding agent and paint it regardless.
You can tint the acrylic render to the colour you wish so if you want you don t even have to paint it.
We want to waterproof the wall of the shower area to 1 8m and above and re tile.
One window wall remains so in view of your comments i may decide to hack off the old stuff and render the wall and window recess as in the shower area.
