Best boards to use

Recommended Posts

Hi folks needs some good quality advice. Doing the kitchen out in our victorian house  solid walls, had some damp issues which should be sorted when the new complete floor goes in .All the plaster and ceiling are down so going to board it out in plaster board only got one external wall so do you guys think I should use green board on this wall or some kind of board with insulation or vapor barrier? Don't really want damp issues again or mold behind the boards or kitchen cabinets want to get it right first go,  or green board all the walls ? , kitchen will have a fan and cooker hood to shift cooking fumes and moisture ect, also going to use red boards on the ceiling due to bedroom above the kitchen, so do you recomend to double board it or just use 15mm boards? And should I insulate  between the boards and floor boards to keep it warm and cut down on noise in the bedroom? Or will this cause possible condensation Issues?  Many thanks guys Jason

No need to use moister boards in a kitchen Though if the outside wall feels cold you could dab 37 mil insulation board Ceiling Its personal choice weather you add some insulation for sound 

One layer of 15 mil duplex

(foil back) will be fine
