Plasterer / Tiler - Prep work

Hi all,

Got the plasterer coming next week to plaster the walls and I am just wondering if I need to do any preperation before he comes?

We have stripped all the wallpaper off..... theres bits of gluey stuff where dado rail was which is very hard to remove and plaster and paint stuff flaking some areas of wall.

Also do we have to do any prep work for the tiler (just one wall)?

Thanks

    As long as you have taken the paper off you wont have to do any prep.
    You dont have to sand the walls down or anything.
