I usual method is chipboard and 6mm Hardie.

But if all the floor is up and you can get it locally for a good price 22mm no more ply would be best I suppose.

Availability, less joints, tried and tested. No more ply 22mm might work just fine but in a Bathroom I’d still prefer that single sheet of ply or couple of sheets of ply and a single join then over boarded.

A joint every 500mm for me isn’t ideal with backer board IMO- In other words I don’t have the confidence in the product.

Maybe I don’t know enough about it.

When the conversation came up recently I went straight onto the no more ply website to have a look

The link to ‘view details’ of the board didn’t work then and it still doesn’t. Why should I attempt installing a product when the manufacturers can’t even display the information properly.
