I want to take down the existing plasterboard ceiling in my small (2.2 x 2.2m) shower room. Firstly, being a shower room, does the plasterboard need to be of a special grade ie damp resistant to the steam. Also i had assumed this could be done boarding it in 2 halves. If it is going to be skimmed should i have tapered edges down the middle of the ceiling where the 2 halves join and fix jointing tape. One last question, what should i use for the inevitable gap where the new ceiling will meet the top of the walls. Any help would be appreciated.
