if you get 2" of water again you will still be screwed. the paint will peel off the cement board, the studs (if wood) will be wet and grow moldy. there are a couple of different types of backerboard out there- the grey cement looking stuff seems to absorb more water than the beige colored stuff. tile with a morter designed for wet applications will help with the floor though
