As previously stated my husband has used the eleement boards twice, originally in our daughters new bathroom & now when he is renovating ours. They are so much better that waterproof plasterboard so much so that we have convinced our plumber ( who was unaware of them)to recommend to his customers

The right number of boards for two walls around the shower / bath. Blue tanking paint was more than sufficient for coverage.

Very good product but a bit expensive

So far so good, the kit gives you a saving over buying individually. Plenty of tape and fitting washers/screws. An excellent item and worth spending the money on over plasterboard even though I'm using it in a shower enclosure and not a wet room. Not as rigid as cement boards so fitting properly is obviously important. They are however much lighter and easier to manoeuvre. I love the idea of being able to fully seal the enclosure with the tape and sealant. So much peace of mind re watertightness. ( might have made that word up?)

I prepped my bathroom on 3 walls with the elements abacus kit. When my tiler arrived he commented that abacus boards are the ideal thing to use.

The wall kits are excellent. If you need to cut the boards you may find a few extra fixings are required, but product is excellent and service from Rubber Duck was spot on.

Full kit with everything needed to complete a wet room installation. Boards and ancillary items boxed separately, and delivered in perfect condition from Rubber duck Bathrooms. Easy to use (cut and fix) and light enough to handle by one person. Excellent product. No instructions provided, but easy to obtain online - including videos.
