Hello,
we are getting a basement made of waterproof concrete (WU concrete) and I would like to know how others handle the electrical installation with switches and sockets in such cases. With WU concrete, only surface-mounted installation is possible. For the utility basement rooms, that is fine for us, but we will also have two living rooms, and we cannot install everything on the masonry interior walls.
Therefore, my question is whether it is possible or advisable to build a pre-installation wall to solve this issue. I was thinking of a drywall (gypsum board) partition.
Surely I am not the only one with this problem, right? How have you solved it?
