I had multiple people tell me not to have the drywall against the tank with the non supported ~5 inches between tank top and framing. So I am going to get the cabinetry contractor to build our wood wrap down over the gap. The bottom section is tile up to the sand line, and the top is an espresso wood with a brushed metal trim. The two doors on the front will have a built in overlap so no light leaks out.
Big question Steve, cement fibre board or good ol' drywall to tile to? I originally thought cement board but have had a couple people tell me it's not necessary and is only really used in shower installs. Tiled back splashes use drywall.
Opinions?
