Questions & Answers
When the screws are screwed into their washers and nuts, the fixture is ready to hang I find it to be very durable in terms of screws. Our contractors have no trouble installing porcelain tile on walls, ceilings, or ceilings of 12x24, 18x36, and 24x24 sizes. We have had the majority of our tile contractors switch over to the Kerdi-Concrete A shower system based on the Kerdi-System Is the board
I don't think so. If the tile mortar is used on a rough surface like wood, it must stick. Prepare the surface by putting down 1/4 plywood Don't screw it up - On top of the plywood, apply tile mortar. To apply mortar, first dampen a sponge and then apply it over plywood. If you place the tiles on an uneven floor, they will lip up.
That is not the case in my opinion. You can reach Schluter by phone.
Selected User Reviews For Schluter Systems Kerdi Board Waterproof Shower Kit, Model KBKIT
The Kerdi membrane stands head and shoulders above Durock, Hardie Backer, and RedGuard. It's a matter of pros and cons with each one. The Kerdi Board system is by far the best! I will never use anything else after spending a few extra dollars. There are no longer the days when cement boards had to be carried on a broom, knives were used to cut through cement, and cursing if you tried to cut a round hole in a piece of cement board. The pros are The boards are SOOO light, but they are strong enough to span 16" between studs. Despite their relatively high weight, they are secure when on the wall.
* The boards are easy to cut also. Unlike drywall, it is very easy to install! It is easy to cut out the In my case, I used the Kerdi niche, and it looks lovely and was easy My opinion is that the time saved from cutting and getting it installed is well worth it.
I would not buy more in the future. The sheets were easy to use, but most of them had holes in them and defeated the purpose of this product. I will buy it in a store next time so that I can see what the product is like. The way this was shipped is not to my liking, so I have to patch all of.
For our first bathroom renovation, we chose to go with this product instead of concrete board. It is easy to cut, easy to handle, and produces no dust. We highly recommend it.
The item arrived exactly as described and I trusted their description of "used like new". There was no damage to any of the parts, and the materials looked brand new. If I were to buy again, I would.
You will find everything you need for doing a DIY shower project here.
It is impossible for a DIY guy like me to find Schluter Kerdi Board or any Schluter product within a reasonable driving distance. As a rule, I don't leave feedback and when I found out this expensive product is mostly foam, I was very hesitant to order it. Normally I order from big box stores and have them ship to the store so I can inspect the items before I pick them This was my concern based on the feedback I read that indicated it might arrive damaged. The package arrived in perfect condition! A kit box was shipped (i. e. , in which the entire kit was packed. Packing materials by Schulter). There were no damage to any of the items. I would like to send my thanks to the supplier who made this available for DIYers.
I loved how easy it was for DIYers to use this product! This is a feather-shaped object A foam board is easy to cut and to move around than cement boards the markings on the boards make it easier to keep tile level and will minimise the need to use cement boards. You will also receive everything you need for finishing the job.
