CEMENT BOARD INSTALLATION

TIME REQUIRED

1-2 HRS

We recommend the use of 1/4” thick cement board as your shower backer. This is a common backer for stone and tile. Using this backer will help comply with 

almost all city codes. A cement-based product like Wonderboard or Hardibacker may also be used if it meets your local codes. Some codes require a vapor  

barrier to be installed as well. We recommend a water/vapor barrier of 6 mil. plastic be installed before installing the cement board. To do this, staple plastic 

so that it hangs 1” above the floor. Roofing nails may be used to attach the cement board instead of screws, this prevents the plastic from wrapping around the 

screws. 

  1.  IMPORTANT: Use your cement board as an indicator of squareness. The cement board comes in    

    square sheets. If you see gaps or areas where the cement board is not fitting flush, fix  

 

    the problem by removing the cement board and shimming the board until it’s square and  

 

    flush. If the seams of the cement board are not flush and square, your wall panels will not  

 

    be square and flush.
 

  2.  Place the cement board against the studs and rest it on the top of the shower pan, back  

 

    flange. Attach the cement board to the studs with screws.
