Cement Boards

What are cement boards?

Cement boards are the hidden heroes of renovation and landscaping projects, providing unmatched longevity and versatility for a variety of applications. These boards, made from a combination of cement and reinforcing fibres, are designed to endure the harshest circumstances, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Whether you're remodelling a bathroom, building an outdoor kitchen or decorating your landscape, cement boards are your go-to answer.

What can cement boards be used for?

Cement boards are particularly effective in damp areas such as bathrooms and kitchens. Their moisture-resistant features make them ideal for tiling, as they provide a solid and sturdy foundation that prevents water damage and mould formation. Furthermore, their strength and durability make them ideal for designing bespoke worktops, backsplashes, and even shower enclosures, bringing a touch of modern elegance to any room.

Whether you're a seasoned contractor or a DIY enthusiast, cement boards are a must-have addition to your toolkit.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I cut cement boards?
Using the straightedge as a guide, gently move the utility knife across the board to ensure a precise and clean cut. The straightedge acts as a solid guide, keeping the knife from deviating off course and guaranteeing straight, equal lines. Once the initial incision has been completed, carefully turn the cement board over to the opposite side. Maintain a steady hand as you move the utility knife down the set line, making mild pressure to guarantee a clean and seamless finish.
Are cement boards fireproof?
Although cement boards are well-known for their fireproof capabilities, it is critical to confirm this attribute in the manufacturer's documentation before using them in projects containing materials that are flammable. Always confirm that the cement board you choose satisfies the manufacturer's fire safety criteria to ensure maximum safety and performance in your project.
Can you render cement boards?
Cement boards are an excellent substrate for directly applied render finishes and can be used on external walls in ventilated systems as well as exterior ceilings.
