Hi I am just about to fit out a new shower room. It is in an area that consists of an outside wall and three internal walls. The main quadrant shower enclosure will fit against a studwork wall that has plasterboard under which is a heavy gauge plaster membrane, and the other wall a plaster boarding that consists of compacted straw (from the original build)
Both walls are in excellent condition as they stand.
Because of the potential for damp penetration, I would prefer to use aquapanel to fix the tiling to, certainly in the shower cubicle. In the case of the studwork and plaster wall, should I remove the plasterboard first or simply bond and screw through the plasterboard?
On the other wall, I was thinking of bonding and screwing through the aquapanel using the appropriate plugs?
Is it also worth lining the floor under the shower tray with aqua panel?
Is this the best way to do it or are there any other suggestions?
Thanks
