Tile backer board

[ds1980]

Not sure why last post was removed. Basically can I screw elektra tile backer board into a wetroom wall area just as we've done with plasterboard? Ie batons and screwed. Also should I tank? Ta

Is it the aquapanel thermal or the marmox style stuff?

[ds1980]

ELektra. don't Know the others but was told it had same properties as aquapanel. Fil said that he'd only used the full cement based stuff before. Now think I've messed up. Hopefully it'll be ok!!!!???!!

Dan also why have 3 other posts on this subject been deleted? Had emails saying people had replied now they're gone. Should I be worried??

ok, will go and have another look

i think theyll be fine but it is the fixings im worried about dont really fancy taking 200 screws out and adding washers which looks like what you have to do on PCS and Marmox boards at least. By the way it is going onto stud partitioning that is drilled and screwed into previous brickwork

can't find the posts, I'm assuming that maybe they got lost during the software upgrade, as there was a bit of a glitch about 10pm'ish

Advice is as long as fixings are ok, minimum 15 per board and you use 36mm+ washers itll be fine.....few. Just a couple of hundred screws to redo. Bloody washers are 20p each when did they get so expensive!!
