I've split my bedroom with a partition wall to form an ensuite toilet and shower room.
Inside the en-suite, the plasterboard wall will form one of the 3 sides of an alcoved shower cubicle, which will be tiled, and will also have a run of plasterboardoutside the shower cubicle which i plan to simply line and paint with a bathroom paint. I'm not planning on getting it skimmed before decorating.
Do I need to/is it advisable to seal the plasterboard with anything first before i go ahead and tile over it inside the shower cubicle and paint over it on the outside of the cubicle ? Given the obvious amount of moisture that can build up in an ensuite (which i am alleviating with an extractor fan with humidistat) i am juist wondering if the plasterboard needs sealing before decorating ?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
