Luxury Coach Lifestyles - View Single Post - advice on replacing kitchen tile with granite

I changed from carpet in my 1988 coach. After removing the carpet I installed 1/2" cement board by gluing and screwing it to the floor and then installed the marble on top of the cement board. If you use the cement board be careful if you have metal on the floor by the door for the step slide cover, you can't put screws through the metal so I put weight on the glued cement board until the glue set up overnight. It's been in 4 years and I do have any cracks or loose marble and it looks great.
