I d suggest hardiebacker or wonderboard both 1 4.
Will adhesive luxuru vinyl stick to hardy backer board.
I glue with acrylic modified thinset and screw with 1 25 special screws for hardiebacker.
I have since decided to install vinyl sheet flooring.
If needed cut the backerboard to fit in small spaces or around obstructions.
Score the board with a utility knife then cut it using a jig saw with a carbide blade.
Hi i expected to install tile on my bathroom floor so i installed cement fiber board.
No need to use the hardie screw most use something like screwfix turbos.
That s why it was named the most preferred brand of backer board by tile installers and contractors according to the 2019 tile and stone report conducted by clearseas research in partnership with the national tile contractors association and tile magazine.
Yes but i usually glue and screw the new backer board.
However the board must be forced into the structural adhesive almost immediately upon application to insure that no ridge or crown is formed.
Hardiebacker cement board is made better to install better and perform better.
Here is my concern.
Use a zinc screw.
To smooth the floor i covered screw.
For floors you use a thin bed of tile adhesive 6mm notch and screw down the board s marked to help.
Where hardiebacker board is being installed directly to wood or metal framing the use of a structural adhesive in addition to mechanical fastening can be used.
