On one

As others have said it looks like a waterproofed P5 chipboard possible Egger Request Rejected
Now it says you can tile directly onto it,whether you should or not?????? depends on how well it was fitted and joist spacings and so on.
If it was up to me I would overboard with Hardiebacker

I 'HAVE' to tile on this a lot, all consequences allowed for by email confirmation. It's Wyrock, prime it with Ardex P4 or the like and tile it with a good rubber crumb adhesive, in ten years I've never had a failure

but op isn't a pro. I'd never suggest a rubber crumb s2 to a diyer!

Thanks for all the info. I think playing it safe and taking the hit on the extra 6mm added by backer board seems the sensible option for me. I'm definitely not a pro and rubber crumb s2 is a different language to me so I definately shouldn't be messing with it. Even if I say so myself my last job ended up looking great but it took me forever and I threw away more adhesive the I used so I definately need to take the path of least resistance.

Cheers

Is it quartz stone as in the resin mixed one?
If so doesn't that need to be fixed with 2 part?
