Underlayment & Surface Prep(93 products)

Comfortboost is a top-of-the-line next generation underlayment specifically designed to improve a room's overall comfort by combining VinylTrends' advanced acoustical foam with radiant energy reflective technology to provide a comfort that you can actually "feel". "Feel the Difference" - How it Works? Up to 93% of heat/air conditioning lost through your floor is primarily due to the penetration of Radiant energy (compare this to energy lost by Conduction at only 7% and losses through Convection at 0%). The fused aluminum film prevents radiant energy from penetrating down, reflecting it back into your home where it is absorbed in the form of heat or air conditioning energy. This relationship of reflection and absorption is what makes Comfortboost provide a "comfort" that you can really feel.

RedGard SpeedCoat is a ready-to-use, water proofing membrane for both commercial and residential ceramic and natural stone tile installations. Suited for interior substrates, RedGard SpeedCoat creates a continuous waterproofing barrier with outstanding adhesion. It bonds directly to clean metal, PVC, stainless steel and ABS drain assemblies. RedGard SpeedCoat features cross linking moisture cure technology that produces exceptionally fast curing times (as quick as one hour per coat). This helps in the ability to flood test and install a shower system in one day, unlike typical membranes. Its moisture- cure technology allows it to cure effectively even in cool, damp conditions.

SpeedSlope. is a rapid setting, rapid hardening, polymer-modified, pre-blended, cement based mortar bed and sloping mortar for levelling and ramping up to 3" on horizontal substrates; up to 5" thick in confined areas such as trenches. May be also used for walls and countertops, SpeedSlope. sets to a walkable hardness within one to two hours for installation of ceramic tile & natural stone tile flooring. Formulated for dimensional stability and exceptional bond strength, SpeedSlope. is ideal for pre-sloping under waterproofing membranes and mortar beds in shower applications, for countertops and patching.

1/4" (6.35 mm) WonderBoard is a glass-mesh, cement backerboard. Remains stable while increasing in strength, even when exposed to continuous moisture, reducing potential damage from moisture penetration. Reduces subfloor modifications to adjacent floors, thresholds, carpets and cabinets. Tapeless installation on open mesh edges provides superior edge bond strength. Easy to score, snap, cutout and nail.
