Good customer feedback Doug.

As for the impey membrane , it's like poo to a blanket isn't it lol lol...
You get one go ..

WaterGuard now allows a little more adjustment than the Bitumen 'you get one go' alternative.

I really like the new water guard, not convinced by the jointing tape though, it's too shiny on the top side which isn't a great surface for tile adhesive to stick to, I'd prefer the jointing tape to have a fleece on the outer face like the matting.

Hi, are you referring to the 75mm folded section that sits vertically?

Thanks. So the Waterguard membrane should cover this shiny surface when laid on the floor. Our WaterGuard for walls product (due for imminent release) would also offer a way to eliminate the need to tile directly on the jointing tape on walls but we certainly appreciate the feedback on this for standard tiling directly on the tape. Thanks

Yeah it wouldn't be an issue if all walls and floor were tanked as the tape would be covered but, if it's only a shower area that's walls are tanked, there are areas of the floor upstand/overlap that will be receiving tiles over this tape and it's not a good surface to tile onto.

Hi, I’ve just purchased one of your 5m tanking kits to waterproof a shower enclosure, I’m using a conventional resin shower tray and have used a ClassiSeal waterproof upstand on this against the walls, the shower walls are Hardie backer board, how does the WG5 WaterGuard membrane affix to this and do the backer boards need priming with something first?
