    Thank you for this! I’m a 47 year old woman with a very nice home, but as we need work like this I can’t get people to show up for an estimate. So, I have the materials, equipment and I’m making it happen. Tutorials like this are so appreciated!

      You wanna think in terms of waterproofing.
      Every place where a face turns (corners), every time the board wasn’t big enough and you have to use another (joints/seams), and every place a something penetrates the waterproofing (screws/nails/knobs/pipes/drain), these are where water can get past the barrier.
      Every pro video that I’ve watched has said the same thing, “go by the instructions provided by (mfg name).”
      Don’t try to save a few dollars. Use or get and use the tools and products in their system. If you bought too much, you can probly get a refund. You could donate sell or give away leftovers (is Craigslist safe?)
      Good luck. Enjoy

    On vacation there was a curbless shower. The main floor grout joints 4' from the curbless shower leaked water. There should be a grout joint filed with caulk at the transition between shower floor and main floor. That would prevent capillary water movement.

    nice video, i have used schluter for over 20 years and started going back to mud set walls and floor due to how bad the walls are. going to be doing a master bath with hydro ban to go over the mud. there are no shortcuts but there are differences in costs between the 2 methods. remodels are always more work than new construction and should be compensated for it too.

    • @eunicom
      @eunicom Год назад

      Which method would you say is better cost wise? Supply issues not being taken into account. I keep debating whether to go Schluter or Hydro Ban or concrete boards. Looking to doing 3 bathrooms one a time of course.

    • @ceramictilepro
      @ceramictilepro Год назад +1

      @@eunicom both laticrete and schluter products are very good and will work fine, it's just a preference on which method works for you, the biggest issue i have with waterproofing fabric is the buildup in the corners which make inststalling smaller tiles more difficult. the one plus hydro ban is that you apply 2 coats to achieve 20-30 mils thickness which keeps the buildup down to a minimum. if you plan on using any type of backer board, do your prep and make sure those studs are plumb and flat because if you install to warped and out of level walls, you will fight the install with thinset

    @Trucker-Belly 2 года назад

    Its best to set and seal the foam tray after you tile the walls. Use a ledger and leave enough room at the bottom so you can work on the wall tile on the subfloor. Also, you should take a Schluter class or mayBe watch some videos. You are sitting on the bag of inside and outside corners. Yes, you want a 2” overlap but use the corners and overlap 2”. If you watch the videos you will do it without having a 3 layer build up in the corners as well plus its less work and saves material.

    I'd suggest checking out "star tile" he has a few curbless shower examples too. I'm anti schluter as it's very expensive. I think a solid sub floor, and maybe some durock/hardie, then some mesh and red guard or their speed coat. Is the way to go. I'm not so sure on thin set sealing a membrane down. It is faster but speed coat claims to dry quick. Theres many ways to do things and if this works then great. Tile coach just talked about kerdi linear drain failures. The glue isn't holding. Red guard states on the instructions it is rated as a pan liner and to paint it to stainless drain Then flood test

    You’re not including the amount of pipe going under the floor board. As a plumber would do is glue the pipe to the flange first then dry fit to the p trap and give your self an extra 1/4” of pipe to go all the way into the hub of the trap then measure and cut off what you dont need.

      Most manufacturers warrant their thinset with Schluter now. It used to be a big deal, but not so much anymore.

    Full of it! If you use a mud pan, just redguard it! Everybody wants to act like they know it all and their way is the only best way. You're full of it. I've demolitioned bathrooms decade's old that had no modern waterproofing systems and there was no water damage. You're full of it.

      Most mud should go below 3/8” of an inch. That hinders slope on a pan this height. It’s simply showing a way to do it. Deal with you sh$t
