Backer Board / Building Board 1200 X 600

Backer Board / Building Board 1200 X 600

Comply with 2026 Irish Waterproofing Regulations

The Building Board / Backer Board is a 100% waterproof, ETAG 022-certified carrier board. Perfect for wet rooms, shower tanking, and leveling uneven bathroom surfaces with zero leaks.

Why Professional Tilers Choose Building Boards:

  • Tile Directly: High-quality cement top & bottom coating means you can tile directly on the board—no primer required.
  • Massive Time Savings: Saves up to 50% of manual effort compared to conventional brick/block walls.
  • Ultra-Lightweight & Strong: Extruded polystyrene foam core offers incredible pressure resistance while being easy to carry upstairs.
  • Thermal Insulation: Adds a built-in layer of insulation, perfect for underfloor heating applications.

👷♂️ 25-Year Master Tiler's Tip: "Don't risk rotting timber or standard plasterboard in a wet room. I use these 6mm boards specifically to sheet over existing uneven masonry or timber floors before tiling. Because they cut easily with a standard utility knife, your prep time is slashed in half."
