Backer Board for Wet Areas & Showers
Foam backer boards and waterproof building panels are commonly used in showers, tub surrounds, and wet areas where moisture resistance and waterproofing are required prior to tile installation.
Selecting the Right Tile Substrate
Selecting the correct backer board depends on installation area, moisture exposure, framing type, panel thickness, and tile assembly requirements. Proper fastener selection and panel installation help create stable surfaces for tile bonding and waterproofing systems.
