Thanks for taking the time to read.
I have recently had problems in a shower cubicle with leaks. It caused black mold, so I want to sort it properly this time.
The shower cubicle is 900mm x 900mm on the 2 walls, and covered in pvc cladding panels.
Now, I want to rip out the plasterboard, and replace the pvc cladding, but the problem I have, and even after loads of reading up, I am more confused...is, what do I put behind the cladding instead of plasterboard?
Do I use aquaboard, widiboard, or any other of the 5-10 products I have read up about??
Any help wold be really appreciated. :beer:

aquapanel, backer board, hardi board, any of the waterproof panels will do, or plasterboard that you put a tanking solution overI'm only here while I wait for Corrie to start.
You get no BS from me & if I think you are wrong I WILL tell you.0 -

Cheers for the replies.
I had a look at CDT online, but can only see the branded wedi boards. I will have to try to get into a store and have a look.“Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?”
