Finally someone made a video about it, did the same in a property but I use a Henry waterproofer over the paper and even sometimes where paper is missing, great tip
Very good information this will help a lot of people! Thank you for sharing this information
I posted on your TikTok.
The presence of a stud does not make the paper between the stud and the siding magically waterproof. However if you also red guard the stud, and sister that stud, the dwelling should be safe.
The reason you need to red guard the floor for your interior walls is that there is probably not sufficient waterproofing under the slab and at the sides. Often a thin foam layer is added below the sill plate to keep water from leaching into the wood.
You will probably also need to provide an underlayment for your flooring that allows for a damp concrete slab.
dropping gems Hektor ! thanks a lot
man this tip is gold, getting ready to start my adu know and your videos have helped out a bunch.
Glad to help
GREAT INFORMATION 👍
HEKTOR , thank you 👍👍
This is very helpful!!
Hector AWESOME VIDEOS, Your very detailed and informative m. Greatly appreciate your interest in saving the small mom and pop homeowners money, and who are trying to do some of their ADU work them selves
Thanks for the tips ! Did your garage have a floor that was sloped ? Have you put sleepers over a floor to raise/level it? Thanks.
Really darn good information!👍👍👍
Another great video :)
Thanks, good information.
Thanks boss!
great job!!!!!!!
Does there need to be red guard only if there is stucco exterior? There is wood slats on one of my sides of the garage. Thx
Loving these videos! Super informative , and tons of value. Thank you!
Your da man! Hector for Mayor!
Does the exterior stucco need to be removed or just the dry wall from inside?
What kind of main exterior door is that on the ADU? Brand? Cost? Thanks!
Can you use that red guard on the floor as a vapor barrier?
subscribed ! Thanks 😊
I just had my city of LA inspector tell me I am unable to use red gaurd as described in this video. Do you have a link to LADBS that indicates alternative to the paper?
You da man!
do you ever try using light garage steel to make adu. Let me know if you are interested in trying first one together
What do you use on the cement floor? Redguard and then an underlay foam ?
Only Redgard 👍
Respect
Hi I'm researching to get started on a garage to ADU conversion. How much did it cost you for design plans and getting the permits. Could you break down the costs? Thanks
Design plans 3k. Some charge as much as 9k. Permits probably 1k but you also have electric panel permit (500). There are a few more small charges
good tip .. only question how do you apply redguard between the stud and old paper... it's not reachable or you need to remove stucco and this is the most affected area usually..
If you need to apply Redgard to the back of the stud most likely the paper is not is the condition to be salvaged. The best thing to do will be to install a new layer of paper. Ask the city inspector how to proceed. I would not have applied Redgard if my inspector did not approve it beforehand.
Hey Hektor,
What if the paper is completely falling off,,can you still apply redguard or install new moisture barrier paper?
The only person that can approve that kind of fix will be the local city inspector
Is that redgard a plastic material once dried?
Yes it turns into a substance of plastic once dried
Hola ektor en mi adu ya no hay papel negro todo se quemo .puedo poner redgard sobre la pura pared sin papel o que puedo hacer?
Yo le pondría Redgard al stucco y la madera para que tenga protección contra la agua.
@@HektorCastillo gracias por responder le pondria redgard en
El cemento y las maderas sin el papel?
Q: if the current walls of the garage don’t have any paper- just the exposed wood in my garage, do I need to add the paper? Or simply add red guard directly to the wood?
I have the same question. Were you able to find out? If no paper is there and it's only exposed wood if red guard can be applied or new paper? Plz let me know. thanks.
I personally would put the paper and then the red guard i think itll last longer but u cant go wrong putting both
Will it only be redgard? Or any other brand is ok?
The city inspector recommended to use Redgard. If other brand offer the same kind of waterproofing then that should be ok. I would confirm with the city inspector if you are using other brands
If Natalie designs the ADU, then who do you use as a licensed architect to get the stamp for the building department?
You don't need one. A stamp is not required for a garage conversion.
@@HektorCastillo You do need a stamp - even for a garage conversion - if you create any new openings in the existing walls. In which case, you'll need to get a structural engineer's stamp. I suspect you didn't need a stamped set in this case because you're the owner-builder on the project, used WFPP, and your door and window openings used existing headers(?).
@@marisayoung796 Section 5537 of the Business and Professions Code does not require a licensed architect to stamp plans for a single-family dwelling of wood-frame construction not more than two stories and basement in height, but the Building and Safety Division of County of Los Angeles Department of Public Works may request the preparation of plans, drawings, specifications, or calculations by, or under the responsible control, of a licensed architect or registered engineer if the structure deviates from conventional light-frame construction. The plan checker assigned to review your project will have the authority to determine the requirements for final approval.
actually, not true. you can use it to waterproof tour tile shower below the tile instead of some overpriced schluter system. was used in a new tiled walk-in shower in an adu.
Hey hektor, I need an structural engineer, can you recommend one.
go to his website, he has links for all kinds of professionals there
@@CFinch360 thank you, found one already!
