What Customers Are Saying
This backerboard product received mixed reviews. Many customers found it to be a good quality, waterproof, and easy-to-install product that provides a solid base for tiling. However, a significant number reported major issues with cutting and installing the backerboard, finding it extremely difficult to score, snap, or cut, even with specialized tools. Some also noted the material was prone to delamination and breakage during installation. Careful preparation and the right tools seem necessary for a successful outcome with this product.
