Hi All,
Newbie here. Just got an old house which i am trying to renovate before moving in at as little cost as possible. I have been offered some free sheets plasterboard and was wondering if their use was limited. I know there are vapour resistant and heat resistant (well more than the average 12.5mm ones) boards out there but, was wondering if it would be absolutely crazy for me to use regular 15mm TE boards for my tiny new kitchen and tiny new bathroom?
Any thoughts welcome as i would like to save money but, obviously if it will definitely bring on more problems in the future then i would rather know that as well.
By the way i hate lath and plaster walls. Just had to redo some electrics in this stuff and it was/is a nightmare!!!
Thanks for the help.
