The kitchen usually experiences the most foot-traffic of any room, in addition to spills, heat, and condensation from cooking. Hardie® Backer Board helps create a solid, moisture-resistant foundation for any tile job, even offering stability to heavy tile or marble countertop installations.

Not only can laundry rooms be high humidity places, but they can also experience detergent spills, machine agitation and possible malfunction, as well as water leaks. Help defend against water seepage with Hardie® Backer Board with HydroDefense® Technology, designed to prevent tile from shifting or cracking while acting as a 100% waterproof base** for heavy appliances and foot traffic.

Hardie® Backer Board with HydroDefense® Technology combines built-in protection from water and MoldBlock® Technology to help prevent mold growth on the board before it can take hold. This makes it the ideal underlayment for your bathroom, from the shower to the floor, helping prevent seepage and hidden water damage.

As the first line of defense when coming home in inclement weather, mudroom floors see everything from melting winter gear to our beloved dogs with muddy paws. Hardie® Backer Board works to help block water before it causes damage. Even after exposure to water, Hardie® Backer Board will retain its strength and shape, offering lifetime performance without degradation.
