does anyone know if there is an 8 x 4 tile backer board? why just the 1200 x 600 ones

I've used 2400x600 made by orbry which I believe is Hampshire tile warehouse own brand

wanted to go directly onto the studs at 400 centres... 2400 is good, its the 600 that's the pain

They work landscape as would the 1200

I asked at CTD Yesterday the same question more for value but got the same back. :-(

I think most of the manufacturers make them. But not many shops stock them.

British gypsum do one called Glasroc tile-backer same size as plasterboard jewsons sell them and other builders merchants

I much prefer using thw smaller sized boards, much easier to get up to a bathroom and around easier to handball in and out of thw van and what not. A bit lazy I guess but I do find the 1200 x 600 more easily manageable

Smaller boards are easier to manage and especially in small houses

More joints on smaller boards though
