    Cement Boards....

    Hello. Not posted here for a couple of years. And am a bit dejected to say the least. So - What's the general opinion regards Tanking Cement Boards when they are fitted in a bathroom containing a shower enclosure? To clarify, I'm not talking about when they are fitted in a wetroom. Thanks, Grouch.
