Tile Backer Board for Showers, Walls & Floor Tile Installation
Tile backer board is a moisture-resistant tile substrate installed behind ceramic tile, porcelain tile, and stone tile on walls, floors, countertops, and wet-area assemblies. This collection includes waterproof foam board, tile underlayment panels, and building panels used for shower walls, tub surrounds, bathroom floors, backsplashes, and other residential and commercial tile installations.
Tile backer boards are commonly used beneath tile to create stable installation surfaces and support waterproofing systems in moisture-prone environments where drywall or plywood may not be suitable.
