Preferred Backer board - TilersForums.com

[Bopster]

quick question, which backer board is your preference for walls and floors
Ie marmox, hardie, no more ply, wedi etc

Wedi style boards are my favourite due to ease of use although I guess it may come down to who has stock locally, for me hardie is available over the counter just 2mins from home. Not the cheapest but for smallish areas not a concern. If a larger quantity needed I get a delivery from a cheaper supplier

 

[Time's Ran Out]

Wet - Jackoboard.
Dry - Hardiboard. (Floors)

 

[Qwerty]

Marmox

 

[WetSaw]

Kerdi because I don't have a lot of choice and cement board is just as expensive here..

 

[Waluigi]

Orbry
Hardiebacker
Aquapanel
Pro Ply

Depending on Application.

Hardiebacker, Aquapanel and Pro Ply for floors. Orbry for walls or as an insulation board for floors.
