Designs incorporating wet rooms, etc. require a watertight containment system to be installed behind the ceramic tiles and finishes, to prevent water penetration due to commissioning leaks, substrate movement and grout failure.
A flexible system should be considered on modular construction products, such as plywood and plasterboard. Systems that incorporate membranes that can be applied quickly and allow immediate tiling help minimise construction delays.
