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.
Will adhesive luxuru vinyl stick to hardy backer board.
Yes but i usually glue and screw the new backer board.
If needed cut the backerboard to fit in small spaces or around obstructions.
It looks like tile and is priced similarly and both are waterproof and groutable vinyl tile but there are big differences.
I glue with acrylic modified thinset and screw with 1 25 special screws for hardiebacker.
To smooth the floor i covered screw.
I d suggest hardiebacker or wonderboard both 1 4.
However the board must be forced into the structural adhesive almost immediately upon application to insure that no ridge or crown is formed.
Here is my concern.
The adhesive is supposed to be there not to stick the board down but to fill any voids but in reality it also sticks it down of course.
Use a zinc screw.
Hardiebacker cement board is made better to install better and perform better.
For floors you use a thin bed of tile adhesive 6mm notch and screw down the board s marked to help.
I have since decided to install vinyl sheet flooring.
No need to use the hardie screw most use something like screwfix turbos.
Hi i expected to install tile on my bathroom floor so i installed cement fiber board.
Score the board with a utility knife then cut it using a jig saw with a carbide blade.
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.
