help with boarding out

[White Room]

do you bother using the tape that u are supposedto use
i cant see them making much difference also can i just use one board for small bog or would i have to brick bond as advised

It bond's the joint's together and allow's a bit of flexi, and yes use one board if you can, no problem

Id check with your local CTD as mine do sell Hardibacker as well as Wedi board.

Cheers..i have asked and asked CTD,s head office(newcastle) to stock hardie-backer boards and they said they had no intentions of stocking it....which branch do you use.?....i will get onto my local branch to see why one sells it and not the rest.....

My local CTD only sells Wedi unless that has changed recently which is possible as it has moved to new premises. My understanding of using 6mm hardibacker over T+G florboards is that the substrate should have hardly any deflection so may have to be plyed first which sort of defeats the point, best to check this out with Hardie first though. I tend to opt for 12mm+ply depending on the tile size and substrate or aquapanel fixed with spf and screwed.
