Michael Asked :Does this Geberit Acoustic installation set also protect tiles from cracking? I am also looking at a Roper Rhodes Laminate Black Granite 1500 mm Worktop at £66.53 with free shipping. If I buy these together from you, can they both be free shipping? Regards, Michael

Answered By Nagpal The name is on the tin - it provides acoustic insulation so that you can flush the toilet in the middle of the night without waking the whole house up. If it were also designed to stop tiles from chipping, maybe Geberit would have added that to the name?
Only correct installation of the frame and backing board (e.g. plasterboard) and tiling would prevent tiles from cracking.
The issue here is the creation of stress risers, and this would only happen if:
a) the frame can still jiggle about when installed
b) there are large gaps between the frame and plasterboard that's attached to it
c) you use huge amounts of tile cement and have large gaps between the plasterboard and tile.
We will soon verify the details and add your rating appropriately.
