ᐅ How to Proceed with Cement Plaster in the Bathroom?

Good evening everyone,

The interior plastering work is finished at our place. The main bathroom was plastered with cement render.

Only the shower and 1.25 m (4 feet) into the other wet areas will be fully tiled.

Now we are wondering how to treat the remaining plaster.

How have you solved this “problem”? Does anyone have a good tip for us?

Best regards

Eve

Yes, we have thought about that as well.

We also understand that it needs to be pre-treated. Unfortunately, professionals in the trade do not agree on this. That’s why we are asking: How have you handled it?

In the areas without tiles, we had a fine decorative plaster applied and partially painted it to create a color accent.

What exactly? The design or the pretreatment?

Had it plastered in Q4 and then painted "normally" (Caparol Indeko Plus + wall decal to create accents).

Both. And this is what professionals call specialized trade. One of them told us we could use non-woven wallpaper in the bathroom and the rest of the house as well. When I asked him where the moisture would go, he just shrugged. In our experience, non-woven wallpaper is not suitable if the walls are not fully dry yet. There is probably still moisture inside at the time of moving in, right?
