Hi,
I'm about to plasterboard half a bathroom this is the exterior wall and it is a cavity filled wall.
My question is after securing the plasterboard with adhesive can you then use screws for extra hold of the boards to the walls?
Any one have any idea on this

Just I've seen a few posts that imply putting screws in might bring moisture into the plasterboard does this only apply solid walls and not cavity.
Thanks
 
You can if you wish

No , does not apply to any wall type .

It is more prone to solid walls, depending on what the outside condition is like.
 
Walls are fine on tye outside and cavity filled. Ok thanks for that

That would be like welding two pieces of metal together then adding some sticky tape, just to be sure.
