    No More Ply and Wedi Alternatives

    If I can weigh in. If the floor is good then replacing it is a costly move. A product that isn't timber should you do that would give a superior surface to tile however as unlike timber it will not expand and contract. Movement is the enemy in tiling. Anti crack mats one thing to remember is...

    Please message me mate. I will sort you some FOC stock and freebies as way of an apology. May sound daft but glad only from one location as likely the same batch of boards so will be an isolated incedent

    Morning, sorry for the late reply. This is very rare with our products. Any issues with boards we will always work with where you purchased them from and replace free of charge. We sell in excess of a million boards in the UK so there will be a small percentage that may not be up to scratch...

    Left outside any product would be. The board works which is why we are the UK's number one backetboard. It simply cannot fail with water. As I said the whole tanking part is the stop the product beneath failing. As our products don't degrade with water no tanking is required. In a normal...

    The board will never let the water through to the stud. If you take a sheet of HardieBacker, stand it up and spray with water it will leave a mark where the water hits the board. Obviously excess water will run down to the floor. This will be less than a tanked board. This is a bare board and...

    The board is water resitant. Water cannot damage or degrade the board in any way. The board will absorb water and disperse it. Only reason we tank is because the product underneath hates water and will degrade. So in a normal bathroom tanking isn't required and a great cost and time saver

    A grinder will always be the fastest way, 12mm is tough but also the only board in the UK that can span 600mm centres without the joints bracing 12mm only needs tanking in a wet room and not a wet area. If a standard bathroom 12mm on stud taped then tile. I'm only Huddersfield and happy to...

    ***Brand new 2018 HardieBacker installation guide***

    As long as the substrate is solid in theory shouldn't be a problem. We now only ask for 12 x fixings too on 6mm on the floor. What might be better is us just popping along to have a look if that would suit Simon? We can usually come up with a work around/spec to most installs! We hate to say it...
