I have bathroom to remodel and currently has "Marlite" panels on wall. Customer wants MDF Paneling installed. My question is how does one install so that moisture does not get into seams and corners?

MDF would be a poor choice in a bathroom. I'd try to steer the customer to another product. If you can't I'd prime the back and all cuts before installing it in the bathroom and I'd be leery of a warranty beyond the time it takes to load your tools back in the truck.

If in doubt check with your local codes enforcement department for what is required when doing electrical, plumbing or structural work on your house. Permits may or may not be required in your area and home owners may not be able to DIY some tasks. My advice may be worth exactly what you pay me for it. :-) |
