Greenboard drywall is used in bathrooms, basements, and other areas where the drywall may be subjected to damp conditions, humidity, and the occasional minor splashes of water. Using greenboard drywall in a wet location is a recipe for disaster. At the very least, severe mold growth will occur, if not outright failure of the product.





While greenboard drywall's paper covering is water-resistent, it is not waterproof. Not only that, but the brittle gypsum core is not suitable for wet applications. A cement-based product like Wonderboard or Hardibacker is suitable for tile-covered wet applications like showers and tub surrounds.
