So, we don&rsquo;t just stock a huge variety of tiles - we also have an extensive selection of tiling essentials to choose from, including our range of tile backer boards.</p> <p>Stocking backer boards in various quantities and widths, you&rsquo;re sure to find the right option to suit your project, giving you a smooth, easy-to-tile surface for fixing your tiles.</p> <p>Explore all our options online right now.</p> <h3>Why use tile backer boards?</h3> <p>When you&rsquo;re installing tiles to floors and walls, you need the surface (substrate) to be flat to ensure the finished surface is smooth and even. But unless you&rsquo;re tiling a brand new wall, finding a completely flat and level surface is quite a rare thing.</p> <p>This is where our tile backer boards can help.</p> <p>Offering an effective and affordable alternative to traditional plywood sheets, tile boards are the saviour of wavy walls and floors. That&rsquo;s because of these practical properties:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Easy to carry:</strong> with a lightweight foam core, modern tile boards don&rsquo;t weigh as much as plywood, making them easier to manoeuvre on site</li> <li><strong>Insulating:</strong> the rigid foam core also provides excellent thermal and sound insulation</li> <li>Simple to use: their composition means they can be cut to size using a utility knife, so there&rsquo;s no need for special cutting tools like a jigsaw. Their smooth surface is tile-ready, meaning you can apply adhesive directly to the board without the need for primer. This can save you time during your project preparation and actual tiling&nbsp;</li> <li><strong>Waterproofing:</strong> perfect for use in wetrooms, bathrooms and kitchens, these tile backers will repel water to protect the walls behind</li> <li><strong>Impact-resistant:</strong> tile backer boards also help to absorb impacts, giving tiled areas added stability</li> <li><strong>Solid:</strong> despite their lightweight profile, tile boards are in fact incredibly strong, giving walls and floors a dimensionally stable surface. Able to bear more weight than plywood or bare plaster walls, tile boards are a must if you&rsquo;re working with heavy tiles</li> <li><strong>Versatile:</strong> tile backer boards can be applied to any floor or wall surface, fixing into place with screws or a cement-based mortar. Plus, they can be cut down to size to fit into awkward spaces</li> </ul> <h3>Which tile board is right for me?</h3> <p>We stock a choice of premium-quality tile backing boards to ensure they deliver optimal performance for tiling projects including bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, bedrooms and living rooms.</p> <p>They come in a standard 1200mm x 600cm length and width, with a choice of 6mm or 10mm thickness and the option to be attached to stud, plaster or brick walls with appropriate screw fixings.</p> <p>6mm tile backing boards are commonly used on floors, but you can opt for a thicker board if you want to raise the height of the floor slightly, or if you&rsquo;re using large format tiles. We also recommend allowing an additional 15-25mm for the tile and adhesive layers.</p> <p>For walls, a 6mm or 10mm tile backer can be attached, providing a sturdy, smooth surface for tiling. If you&rsquo;re using heavy, large format tiles on the wall, it&rsquo;s recommended to opt for the thicker board as they&rsquo;re able to hold more weight.</p> <h3>Buy tiling boards online for less</h3> <p>To save yourself time on installation and money on your tiling equipment, buy your tile backer boards online at Tiles Direct.
