Self leveling compound has served me well when fixing old homes, I use several different brands of backer but hardy works fine I would rather have a flat level base under my backer than dips and voids that happen in my early days when I tried to fill with mortar, there will be many opinions out there but whatever provides a solid base that is level (or properly contoured for a drain) will make the best long term job.– Ed BealMar 22 at 13:42

Thanks Ed! So I don't need to worry about screwing down the Hardy board threw the self leveler and breaking it up with the screws? Also I have just noticed there is a couple hairline cracks in the self leveler. should I worry about that?– StevenMar 23 at 5:08
