Ordinary Plasterboard in Steamy Bathroom
working on a bathroom renovation and wondering if tile on ordinary plasterboard would be suitable for the walls. The bathroom gets quite steamy, but the area around the bath will be fully tanked before tilling. Additionally, the tanked wall is an insulated exterior wall. Would tile on standard plasterboard hold up in this environment, or is it still advisable to use moisture-resistant (green) board or tile back around the bath only or the whole bathroom? submitted by /u/Dt_listener [link] [comments]
