    Horizontal cladding on garden room

    I think staggering looks vastly better, as for T&G or not it's up to you what you like the look of/can afford. If it were me I'd be using cement cladding rather than timber, Marley weatherboard or similar though last time I checked Hardie Planks from James Hardie were the cheapest.

    Cedral or composite cladding

    Don’t look any further than James Hardi cladding. Not cheap but you get what you pay for. if you can use a hammer and or a drill it’s a straight forward job.

    hardie backer to brick wall

    How are your Google skills? James Hardie and co. have very clear instructions online on how to do this, including a video on Youtube. I won't patronise you by just giving you the link.

    Foam Underlay beneath Hardie Backer Board

    We are tiling our bathroom floor which has 70 year old floorboards exhibiting the usual wear, tear and irregularities. There is also a slight bow to the floor, albeit only noticeable with a long, straight edge. Replacing them with chipboard is not really viable because two of the original walls...

    Wooden Floor Preparation for Tiling

    We are planning to tile our bathroom floor: I have seen so much conflicting information that I am confused and should like to try and get some clarity before starting. We have sound wooden floorboards. My plan is to do the following on top of the boards: - 6mm Hardie board (from Topps...

    Fixing Hardiebacker board for tiling

    Thanks for the reply. Too late though, already done ;-) I used Hardie and followed the advice from James Hardie (in a pdf and a video), fixing it with Gripfill and also screwing and plugging. I don't think it'll be going anywhere. Cheers Richard

    Hardie Backer Board or Ply to Overboard Wooden Floorboards in Bathroom

    There are many threads on this topic already, I know, but I am trying to get it clear in my mind before I waste time and money. We have 22mm (3/4"?) wooden floorboards in the bathroom which we plan to tile with 600mm by 600mm tiles. The boards are sound, but have the usual irregularities...

    Bal Bond SBR

    Hi TP Odd that. I had this discussion last week with James Hardi's tech rep. They don't advocate priming and I'm surprised nomoreply do. As it's a product aimed at DIY market I suppose they are going for a belt and braces approach. Guess it can't do any harm. An old pro told me "if...

    Tiling a floor

    WBP ply is no good ? why ? Backer boards don't cover enough area ? once again, why ? I think 8 x 4 ply covers the same area as 8 x 4 hardie board http://www.homedepot.com/p/James-Hardie-HardieBacker-1-4-in-x-4-ft-x-8-ft-Cement-Backerboard-220006/100157596 so not too many joints at all

    Adhesive for HardieBacker

    ...Also the tiles we have chosen are approx 32kg / sq m (inc addy). My question is, if I dot and dab the board to the walls first, before fixing with screw, what do I use as adhesive ? I have looked on the James Hardie web site but do not seem to be able to find an info. Any help would be great.

    Blade sizes on circular saws

    ...I'll need a circular saw blade because even if I only have to rip one board that's going to be worth it! I might even see if I can 'massage' the design slightly to avoid ripping any full-length planks since at this stage I still have the flexibility and I already chose the product (James Hardie)

    WBP or cement board under floor tiles?

    ...but has no effect on rigidity, only to make up heights if needed, but usually you would be after the least build up possible. @SomeUser Have a read on the james hardie website about Hardie backer. They will tell you all the info you need to know, including that you use 6mm for floor overlay.

    James - check out these sites for loads of info: http://www.stovesonline.co.uk/ http://www.chimneysweeps.co.uk/index.htm You'll need to cut away that carpet to reveal the hearth below and obtain a fender (the 'wall' that goes around the hearth to stop hot stuff rolling onto the floor and...

    Licence to woke

    I'd like to see Tom Hardy have a crack at it, but to be fair, Idris Elba is pretty awesome as an actor. I don't think a black actor as Bond is a problem in this day and age, Idris certainly has a track record for action films and playing a 'mean' character, I'd be more concerned if it were...

    Wood framed conservatory

    ...glazed windows fitted all round and replace with two 800mm x 1200mm upvc double glazed windows either side. I would also like to use James Hardie cladding for the sides. And then plasterboard inside. It has a solid flat roof by the way. Can anyone see any problems with this? i would obviously...

    Nomoreply V hardibacker

    That's sound over the top to me. See also the installation instructions on the James Hardie web site. What are you laying the board onto?

    Uneven wall to batten

    ...you have to limit the depth you can come out because of them (around 43mm on one and 37mm on the other remaining). So, when I contacted James Hardie they said it didn't matter what depth of batten I used to level it out and I could use the 6mm on the wall because they will still take the...
