I will be tiling my bathroom with cement board. It's a total remodel with new drywall, etc.... Do I drywall first with the exposed subfloor and then put my cement board down or cement board first and then drywall?
So should I leave extra space under the drywall to accommodate the cement board on the sub floor? Should I leave slightly more than a 1 inch gap under drywall?
No, dry wall is set about 1/2" up off the floor, there needs to be a gap around the edges where the tile board is set.
The baseboard and 1/4 round will cover up the gap.
Right but if I leave a half inch, that will barely fit the cement board. Then I have my tile. Will the tile butt up against the drywall since there won't be any room under the drywall..
