    Dry wall
    I just tore down the wall in my bathroom. I put up waterproof backerboard around the tub surrounding area, and would like to know what is the right type of wall board to put up on the outside wall of the tub?

    I prefer to use moisture resistant green board in the non shower/tub areas of a bathroom. It cost a little more, may not be necessary but it's what I like to do.

    Hey all:

    Hi guys:

    In my area... at home depot they are now selling DENSARMOR MOISTURE and MOLD resistant wall board that they say is superior to the older greenboard. Same price as greenboard, too...

    Here is just one website that discusses it:

    They don't even sell greenboard in my area anymore Harold... ;)

    Anyway, just FYI... let me know what you think guys!

    Well you know how us southern boys are, a little slow on the uptake. Heck, we still using tar paper.
    How you fellas doing on that big hole you been digging for the last 100 years. Heard that you tried to dig half a hole but it didn't work.
