Hi all,
I am in the process of lining the walls of a new bathroom, and can't seem to find any info on whether to glue and nail, or just nail villaboard to the wall studs, and flooring.

Should I hang villaboard on the walls in the same way as hanging plaster (glue in centre, nail around edges) or is it nail only? We are also laying it directly onto timber flooring, and I can't find any info on how to do this?

Any help appreciated...

If you want it to be waterproof, then yes.
