Thnaks bro
super impressed by the quality of content! Especially for 4 minutes. Great editing.
Man... you don't understand how helpful this video is for me, it's beginning to build my confidence for my future project. Thank you!
Glad it helped AJ! Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this informative video! 😊
The fasteners you show are for HardieBacker. The purple Rock-On screws are the correct fasteners for this application with Durock. Otherwise, this is one of the better How-To's on YT.
Thanks for the video!
Quite the Undertaking! Looks good
Thanks Bro! Appreciate your help with the project!
Help help big question before we start Reno tomorrow!!! Can I install the cement board directly over the drywall w all proper screws and on studs, since it’s just tiling walls in bathroom and not shower area? Thank you !!!
Hi - I would not recommend that since it won't match up well with any of the surrounding drywall etc.
Great vid! Thanks!
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching🤙
Great video! What did you do for the seam where the cement board meets the ceiling?
Thanks for this! Helped me get started. Why do you need the tape and mortar? Added strength?
Correct, the Mortar acts as the "glue" that makes the wall one, "monolithic" surface that will not move as individual sheets of Durcok. This gives the tile a much more durable, and continuous substrate. Thanks for watching!
Thank you
Thanks for watching!
Appreciate the video
Thanks for watching!
Question, I am having problem with unlevel wall/studs. Not sure how to make it even. Thanks and congrats on your channel!
My biggest problem as well on an older home.
You can fir out each uneven stud to create a new plumb and level surface.
Awesome video 👌🏼
Thanks for watching!
So helpful ❤what type of boards are used for the ceiling and floor?
How did you get to this point in the beginning of the video? I.e. the plumbing, taking out any walls, etc
Does the cement board run all the way to the subfloor or do you leave a 1/4 inch gap between the bottom on the board and the floor?
Great video, can you secure the cement board at the bottom by screwing into the bottom sill plate to avoid movement and the tiles cracking?
Thanks for watching! I definitely recommend securing at the top and bottom.
Did you tape where the duarock meets the ceiling?
Very informative video...Do you use the cement board tape around the shower nieche's before using the thin set?
Hi Kathy - I actually used a pre-fab Kerdi Shower Niche for my shower. Thanks for watching!
U should add all material in ur list that where I can get those cause people like me. I don't know nothing like that...thanks
Thanks for the video. I will soon be doing my shower, but was wondering how did cut holes for pipes in your cement boards?
Hi Kasia! I used a jig saw for the larger holes and a saw hole bit (on my drill) for the smaller ones. Thanks for watching!
How did you resolve Window and door trim issues? Did you remove all trim inside the bathroom?
Thanks.
Hi Fred - Yes, I removed all of the trim from the bathroom as part of demo and then reinstalled trim at the end of the project. Thanks for watching!
Great videos, but can’t find the one for waterproofing the shower
Hey John - appreciate it! Waterproofing video is here:

Why would you instal cement board on your studs? Ibunderstand the project, but where, and are you adding on? I guess I need a little backstory 9n this, as I've been looking for ways to add a small shower to my 1/2 bath, and it's in the basement, near existing pluming, etc., BUT, it's long & skinny w/the toilet & sink placed side by side at the end. If I could change the doorway into the room to the center of the hall that is the room, but there's no room; the laundry fixtures &tubs block that option.
3:30 When I did a tile project, I applied mortar before placing the tape and then feathered over after. This created some leveling issues. Luckily, the floor is small in square footage. Was this a bad idea? I got it from Home Depot tutorial...
Depends on how much of a lump you have. From my experience, you can usually make up for the slight lump by using the right amount of thin set before you bond the tile. Hopefully that makes sense! Thanks for watching!
You put the cement board before doing the shower floor? Shouldn't you do the floor first, that way if any moisture falls down, it goes to the floor?
Hey Ricardo - The way the Kerdi Waterproofing system works, I was in good shape. But your logic is sound! Thanks for watching!
This is undoubtedly a dumb question ... but .... what do you mean by 'on centre'? As in "every 8 inches 'on centre'"?
No insulation?
Exterior walls were insulated but in hind sight I definitely should have used some insulation in the interior walls to help with sound attenuation. Thanks for watching!
What did you fill in the gap between the kerdi niche and cement board?
I used fiberglass mesh tape and thinset mortar 👍
