Product Information

Full details

The No More Ply 6mm Pre-Primed Fibre Cement Board is the ideal solution for professional tilers and serious DIYers looking to reinforce timber subfloors. It provides a rigid, movement-free surface that effectively prevents tile and grout cracking, making it perfect for moisture-prone areas like kitchens and bathrooms. While it offers superior performance compared to traditional plywood, users should note that the boards are heavy and require specific fixing methods to ensure long-term stability.

FAQs

Can I use these boards over floorboards?

Yes, they are designed to be laid over timber subfloors or floorboards to provide a rigid foundation.

Is this product suitable for underfloor heating?

Yes, fibre cement boards have excellent thermal conductivity and are compatible with most electric underfloor heating systems.

Do I need to prime the boards before tiling?

The boards are pre-primed on one side; however, always check your adhesive manufacturer’s instructions for specific priming requirements.

Can I use these in a wet room?

Yes, because they are water-resistant and will not rot, they are an excellent choice for wet rooms.

How many boards come in a pack?

This product is supplied in a bulk pack of 75 boards.

What is the weight of each board?

Each board is approximately 6mm thick and follows high-density cement specifications; handle with care due to density.

Troubleshooting

Board is cracking during installation

Ensure the subfloor is level and that there are no high spots or debris trapped underneath the board before fixing.

Difficulty cutting the board

Use a dedicated fibre cement score-and-snap tool for straight cuts or a circular saw equipped with a diamond-tipped blade for precision.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Significantly thinner than 18mm plywood for same rigidity
Water-resistant and rot-proof
Pre-primed for faster installation
Prevents tile and grout cracking by eliminating floor flex
Ideal for bathrooms and wet rooms

Cons

Boards are heavy to handle
Requires specific screws and adhesives for optimal performance
Less forgiving than wood if subfloor is significantly uneven

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation requires laying the boards in a brick-bond pattern, ensuring all joints are staggered. It is essential to use the manufacturer-recommended adhesive and screws to ensure the boards bond correctly to the timber subfloor. Before tiling, ensure the surface is clean and free of dust. While the board is moisture-resistant, always ensure proper waterproofing membranes are used in shower enclosures or high-splash zones. For cutting, use a score-and-snap method or a circular saw with a fibre cement blade and dust extraction.
