    Floor Tiling over 22mil TG4 Peel Clean Caberdec Chip Board

    I need to tile 2nd floor bathrooms in new builds. The existing floor is vinyl over the subfloor of 22 mil TG4 Caberdec Chip Board. Can I rip up the vinyl and tile directly over the chip board, or should I lay down hardibacker or other material first. If yes, what thickness would you recommend.

    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.
