I have since decided to install vinyl sheet flooring.
Will adhesive luxury vinyl stick to hardibacker board.
How to lay backer board over vinyl flooring.
No need to use the hardie screw most use something like screwfix turbos.
To smooth the floor i covered screw.
Use a zinc screw.
I glue with acrylic modified thinset and screw with 1 25 special screws for hardiebacker.
With the plywood in place install the backer board as you normally would.
Additionally vinyl tiles.
The plywood adds stiffness and stability to the floor.
Screws every 6 in.
Here is my concern.
If needed cut the backerboard to fit in small spaces or around obstructions.
Peel and press tiles will stick better if you apply 2 3 coats of adhesive primer to the backer same aisle in the store as the tile.
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.
The chosen non flexible tile adhesive should be applied to the subfloor when the 6mm hardiebacker floor board should be slowly embed into the wet adhesive.
Hi i expected to install tile on my bathroom floor so i installed cement fiber board.
I d suggest hardiebacker or wonderboard both 1 4.
Snap a grid to the subfloor using a chalk line to mark your backerboard placement.
Score the board with a utility knife then cut it using a jig saw with a carbide blade.
Add a layer of 1 2 in.
Bc plywood over the old subfloor using construction adhesive and driving 1 1 4 in.
The boards are fixed to the subfloor surface with screws and nails installed every 200mm 15mm apart from the edges of the board and 50mm from its corners.
