Ditra or Durabase CI++ Tile Matting?

[wozza]

Hi All,

 

@nod @Nickfromwales and anyone else who has any experience of either Ditra and Durabase.

 

Our tiler wants to use Durabase matting - should I insist on Ditra? or is it as good or better?

 

Your thoughts, opinions and experiences are welcomed.

 

Thanks, Wozza.

I think 6 and two 3's TBH. What is the cost difference? If negligible, then let your preferred tradesman choose his own weapons

I used the schluter product and it was easy to use. If I remember rightly somebody used a matting on here (buildhub) that delaminated, the fabric backing separated from the plastic top and this created a tile that sounded hollow underneath when walked on

Ditra is what I always buy 

As I get a good deal on it 

But both fo the same job 

If you are buying as a one off 

Dura is cheaper
