View Full Version : Drywall and Tile Backerboard

07-11-00, 11:52 PM
In my bathroom I will be installing cement tile-backerboard around my tub, and it will butt up against some new drywall. How do I handle the joint between the backerboard and the new drywall? Do I use drywall joint tape and joint compound or do I use the backerboard mesh tape? Or something else?

Thanks
