Building toilet stalls in basement. Choice of materials?
I am going to place a toilet on the sewage pipe in the basement. Now to the question, does anyone have any ideas on how to create a partition wall or a simpler toilet stall?
I would prefer to avoid organic materials since there is some moisture in the basement.
Maybe metal studs and smooth metal sheets that I already have lying around?
I would rather not do any masonry work as it might involve chiseling up the floor or something later on...
This is a budget project, so the solution needs to be cheap.

Since it is a budget project, I would have gone with what you have available and not done more than that. Alternatives to sheet metal are fiber cement boards, which are available cheaply at the hardware store. Metal studs are an excellent choice.

Do you have many passing by there then? Or what's the idea? While another room is being renovated or permanent?
Permanent to have access to the toilet occasionally when the rest of the house is rented out, but I have access to the garage and the basement.S Stefan1972 said:
