Well, it's been a while for my updates. Bad news is I think I have the plague
Good news is it gives me a bit of time to actually work on this build.

I finally finished all my framing, most of the insulation, all the electrical rough in and plumbing rough in.
Next step I guess is to finish the insulation in the ceiling, vapour barrier everything off and start drywalling. Here's some pics I took this aft after finishing the plumbing rough-in.

Looking good daplatapus! Are you planning regular drywall or the mold resistant kind?

I'm pretty sick as well, but I think mine is the Ebola.

Thanks guys!
When I renovated my house, my buddy who drywalled my place used some weird drywall I'd never seen before in my bathroom. I had asked for blue board (the regular mould resistant stuff) and he had recommended this other type of drywall. I had just moved here from Alberta so I figured it was just some odd stuff they used down here and said, "Ya, whatever". It seems a bit harder than drywall, and almost felt like it had a grey, plasticky layer on the face side of it. And it has just the hair of a texture to it, so it's not flat and smooth like regular drywall. Anyway, this stuff is amazing around water.
I was thinking of using the same material. Although, it's probably overkill. I have a used HRV I plan on installing to vent the room and the hood above the tank. I also will be using the best bathroom primer and paint I can find and I have a few Marlite FRP panels (left over from jobs) I plan on installing around the sump and sink to protect those area's.

Well, minor progress. Got the room all drywalled, taped and painted. Gonna finish some electrical today, and maybe start the bench for the sump.
