Am in process of starting the downstairs wetroom in an outbuilding of the house. ALthough attached it's single brick front and rear. Space is limited. Am looking at the thermal aquaboards and plasterboards. Is this all ill need?

Its not really damp at present but it is very cold out there!

ANy advice would be great.

That should be ok.

You will need to make sure the floor and walls are fully sealed and watertight.

If you cant put a radiator in the room you could install electric underfloor heating.

Ive got it in my bathroom and its great.

Dont forget to put an extract fan in

Just google 'underfloor heating' there are various products you can use.
You can do some of it yourself but not the electrics.

Good luck
 
Thermal aquaboard isn't very thick and won't do a whole lotta good.
Marmox do undertile heating board slightly thicker, upto at least 50mm, which has the cementious coating that you *may* be able to tile straight onto.

You could also just fix standard foam insulation board to the wall and then fix your aquaboard to that.

You will probably end up having to tank it all anyway so could just use insulation backed plasterboard.
