Hello.
Soon the plasterers will arrive at our new build.
Since we want little wallpaper and tiles on the walls, we have now decided on the gypsum plaster from the selection offered by our developer (cement plaster and gypsum plaster). Due to its smoother surface, it should be better suited for our project. According to the developer, the whole house can only be treated with one type of plaster. So the bathrooms cannot switch to cement plaster.
My question now is:
Is gypsum plaster automatically always lime gypsum plaster? If not, what are the differences between lime gypsum plaster and gypsum plaster? Only the mold-inhibiting effect of the lime?
In addition, it is important to us that no moisture can penetrate through the plaster. Is this given with all types of plaster? Cement plaster at least absorbs moisture and releases it again. But that would mean moisture passes through the plaster, right? We are concerned about the stone wool behind the plaster. In some places, the moisture seal is only ensured through the combination of plaster and vapor barrier. Or would you recommend a completely different plaster? What do you think of gypsum plaster in the bathroom? A controlled ventilation system with heat recovery is present.
