Tile straight onto 22mm CABERBOARD bathroom floor ?

Featured Replies

Our new build has Caberboard 22mm fllor on the first floor. It is very flat and strong with zero bounce. I cannot see why i need anything under it before i tile it. Am i being an idiot or is this a simpe thing please?

 

Caberboard is water proof with a coating, I would be worried about the adhesive just lifting after a short while. So you may have to do something to act as medium to allow a sound connection. Maybe an overlay of ply or something similar?

 

What do the caberboard instructions or website say on the subject?

Thanks Nod.

 

The Caberboard is glued to the joists below and 100% around on every mating side and screwed down. I cannot imagine its ever going to move.
