    Wedi vs Marmox, is Wedi worth twice the money?

    I've got 2 bath panels to tile, the frames are built and the tiles bought. The tiles are 300x200 and quite light. I've been looking at Wedi board to build the front panels. I thought this was quite expensive at £134 inc VAT & postage (I couldn't find anywhere local). The price came from this...

    Marmox in Northern Ireland.

    Does anyone know where on earth you can buy marmox boards in Northern Ireland? I hear they are a bit cheaper than Wedi board (but they don't seem too abundant here either!)

    Hi again. Does anyone know where I can get Marmox boards 40/50 mm from. I would prefer to pick up in cornwall but delivery would be good. Also will I be able to remove a floating floor and foam, then lay these onto the floor thats left and tile straight onto these. Thanks for any info.

    Marmox Boards Behind Shower Bath

    Hi all, when fitting Marmox boards around a shower bath is it best to get the bath in situ and board up the to the bath or board the entire wall and then put the bath in after. Does it not make too much difference either way (apart from saving some board if you go down the first route)? Thanks
