Bathroom Reno - No Drywall

6 years ago

Hello, anyone have any experience with a no-drywall bathroom? It’s a compact room with 34” shower, toilet, sink (all new) and a linen closet and window(no fan). Like to complete in a day so thinking alternatives to drywall would be the best way to go.

Is this a thing?

A no drywall bathroom is possible. Use lath and plaster instead. Or cement board and tile. Or kerdi board and tile.

More inexpensive would be using sheets of fiberglass reinforced panels.

Almost everything that could take the place of drywall will be at least twice the price on up. Not sure what your issue is with drywall used in the proper place. There is no “bathroom renovation in a day”. Ever. That’s propaganda.
