product like no more ply when tiling a first floor bathroom in a new (2018) build house? Page: 2

[RichardJ76]

My house was built in 2018, the floor is sheet boarded which I believe to be green chipboard. I am told these are bonded together as well as to the I joists. There is not a lot of movement but I am no expert. So I ask "is it necessary to use a product like no more ply when tiling a first floor bathroom in a new (2018) build house?".

Try Ctd

I find it very good, yes a little bit more expensive but much more user friendly. As Albert said, try ctd

What tape are you using with it @JulianSidney ? I got the boards from ctd but they didnt stock the bal scrim tape, rep said use any Alkali resistant tape but i struggled to get Hardie tape to adhere to it, however i put it down to it being an old half roll i had in the van for a while that perhaps lost its stickiness

I find old rolls not very good.

Yes, I use the hardie tape, doesn't stick great, even a new roll. I go over it as I put it down with some rapid one. Damp sponge over it to smooth it if needed
