As a tile setter. I recommend priming the walls of your shower first. Stops the drywall from wicking the moisture out of your thinset , when installing membranes. This is the reason cement board is used, not as a safeguard against membrane failure
I'm in the Toronto area and I'm in awe of your workmanship and attention to detail. Would love for you to redo our bathrooms someday. Looking forward to more of your videos and to see you branch out to other builds (kitchens, living rooms)
Wow, only $17k? That looks phenomenal and seems like a really good price for all that work! Makes me want to rethink totally gutting my bathrooms sooner than later lol! (Just finished mini remodel until we're ready to renovate).
If you do the work alone it will me alot more cheaper, but you are do it wrong, it iwll pay twice the price to fix it :D
@@simopr09but it won’t be profession
Your work is art, quality and attention to detail is superb. Very inspiring and I love watching your videos and seeing how to do things. I really like your technique of cutting the niche out after the first row is set to get the perfect grout lines. I just had my master bathroom updated and wish I could have hired you. Look forward to seeing your next projects!
One of the best shower renovation I've ever seen! Thanks for the video!
You should cut in the niche sooner, and cover the seams with the membrane, so you don’t need an additional layer of kerdi band.
That turned out real nice 👍 I'd like to one day try to remodel a bathroom myself but I lack the confidence I feel like I'm gonna screw up somewhere
Such a neat job, well done - hope the home owners are super- happy. Not sure about gluing the architrave & trim around the doors as they do breathe & there's quite a lot of movement with the seasons - wonder what others think. I do love the Carrara, when I wanted that look in my kitchen remodel tile shops down here barely knew what I was talking about! Hopefully 6-yrs later time to do the bath, I'll have plenty of choice!! (Ever the optimist - tough when you live on an island!)
This is absolutely beautiful. I need to add a master bathroom and walk in closet so this gives me a great design idea. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you and good luck!
Man Im from Houston and you are a life saver and me and wifey loves your work thanks
Nice work, video was well worth the wait
Really cool to see you and your business progressing so fast
Looking forward to the next project
Thank you!
Awesome job!
Gorgeous, and the bathroom is beautiful as well!
Wow that end result is so nice!!
Gorgeous work! Happy New Year!
You are so skillful.
Simply amaizing!🎉
Amazing Work!
Love your videos! Keep up the great work!
Great job. I love your work.
Amazing and beautiful job buddy.
BEAUTIFUL JOB, GREAT DESIGN ‼️ ‼️ Vinny 🇺🇸
Great job! video was well worth the wait
He is very punctual very honest I had my bathroom done can never be any more satisfied 🎉
Thank you Amal, it was so great working with you!!
Amazing as usual .
Stunning job man the shower 🚿 is awesome 👌
Nice work!Bravo!
Do you know someone working like you in Long Island NY to recommend ? I need walking shower and I see you are the best for this job.
Great job 👏🏾!!
Amazing transformation explanation spot on. All the best for your all future projects 👍🏼
Much appreciated!
@@WorkinwithWolkon 👍🏼🙂 Thanks
Looks great
Very skilled individual!
Great job . Did you install custom glass shower doors, or was it off the shelf ? Thank you
Amazing work ! I know u will not travel to SF , what about Kamloops BC? 😃 we need a bathroom reno👍take care and keep the excellent work🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🍁
Wow thanks for the video. It is very interesting to see all of the steps. But it is funny. I did not expect the US or Canada to use waterproofing from Germany. I always thought you do it very differently over there.
There's many different methods for sure but I like the German way!
Great work! With regards to the niche, why not make a custom one? Take 2 of those units, cut and join them. Use fibre glass tape and epoxy to join them and since it's all covered with tile and Schlueter it's plenty strong and waterproof.
Thanks! I’ve actually done that in the past and will probably be doing it more often moving forward. It’s just annoying that it has to be done at all, I’d like to just be able to buy a prefab niche that’s the right size to begin with
Looks so high end. Goos job.
Very neat!❤
Amazing work… I’ve been watching you for awhile and I finally decided to comment. I truly wish you were in the US.
Thank you! The way things are going in Canada I may very well have to cross the border one of these days😂
What’s the alternative to a “walk-in” shower? Dive in? Crawl in? Swim in? Jump in? It’s just a “shower” made to sound precocious. Also, don’t use a vanity with a top that overhangs when it’s going to be placed against a wall. You now have a 1/2” gap between the vanity and wall that you will never be able to clean.
Hey why you mad dawg?
Unlike traditional showers, walk-in showers and wet rooms do not have a door; instead, they use glass panels to partition the shower from the rest of the bathroom. They don't only offer better accessibility than a regular bath and shower, and they also offer a more modern, sleek style.
@@lollipopyummy4924 Correct. There are combination bath/showers, and they are described as such. Every standalone shower is a “walk-in” shower.
They are showers without even a curb. In other words, the shower floor is at the same level as the bathroom floor.
IMHO, they are ridiculous. Who wants the water from the rest of the bathroom mixing freely with the water in the shower? But a lot of people love them...and pay extra for them.
Again, IMHO I think these are a fad that will end badly, but then I also dislike shower niches, which are places for mold and mildew to grow, no matter how well they are constructed...and then there is the trend of black and/or gold plumbing fixtures which are expensive and will date a bathroom even faster than "glass tile". Pro Tip: Buy a trendy framed picture or knickknack, stay away from trendy items that are $$$ to replace.
@@aabyron34711. what other water from your bathroom is gonna mix in your shower because there's no curb? Is your toilet leaking?
2. I think you simply dislike other people doing what makes them happy, who cares if it's trendy? It's not your money.
Magician worker! I wish you were closer to Miami
WWAAWW!!! EXCELENTE !!😱😱😘🇲🇽
Coefficient of friction just measures how grippy two materials are. Iirc tires on the road are like 1.3 and your finger on a ceramic mug is like .7. The higher the better for shower grippiness.
really nice
Love your work and videos are very helpful. Question: at 7:37 mark you can see that the Schluter shower pan is higher on the left side of the shower opening than on the right… How do you overcome that to keep the tile level going in? Extra thinset on the right? I’m about to redo my master bathroom and this question has me baffled as I try to plan the project. Appreciate you!
I can't belive heated bathroom floor is luxury. It's done in Norway for at least the last 20 years even in the cheapest apartments. I will never have a bathroom without it, then again, I almost Iive in the North Pole :P
Damn Norwegians always ahead of the curve!
What type of shower glass channel did you use on the half-wall? I don’t see any support other than the ceiling. Was the 6” threshold pre-ground with a channel? Great work!
You are dope bruh!
Slick!
Was here since 1k subs now you have 60x that :)
Thanks for sticking around! :)
I need a shower!!! Already have the plumbing is just a walking shower I need. Where are you located?
As far as Tile sizes, I think most of them are converted from CM measurements in Asia, and then when imported they just us the Western standard.
This is correct. In Australia we know these as 600mm tiles, and they are exactly 600mm. With a nominal 2400mm wall height, it’s 3 full tiles and a small cut off the bottom one to fit the floor height & profile.
What's was the original size of the bedroom before adding the bathroom and the walk-in closet?
Please if anyone can answer this, how can you run plumbing through joists without compromising the joist itselt, I also noticed you left on joist crosses for bracing unattached when you closed the subfloor at 6:22...why? Genuine curiosity as I know nothing about construction.
Nice work. I'm curious about the electrical work. Is everything on 1 15 amp circuit? For the tile sliver at the top, can you half your first row of tile so you end up with a half tile at the top too? Might make for a better look than the sliver.
The floor heat has a dedicated circuit but yes the rest of the bathroom is on the same circuit. You definitely can do that and I often have that debate myself but ultimately I think I prefer a sliver cut over 2 half tiles. I also like that with a 12” or 24” tile you end up with a grout line (and therefor niche height) at 4’
The shower came out sooo good! Aw too bad us Cali people get no love 😜😜
Your channel is awesome and out of love, I have an editing suggestion for the final before/afters- the slow reveals w slick close ups are sexy BUT i would love if you cut straight to the wide shot first. 😅🚿🎬🏆 It would feel soooo satisfying
Incredible! .....what about South Carolina??? 😁
One reason for the weird sizing in tiles is that a lot of manufacturers design and produce sizes in metric not empirical units. Most of the world is metric so tiles are made to be divisible by 10ns and millimeters.
Looks great!
I have one question though. Shouldn’t there be a vent duct connected into the bathroom for the heat and AC?
Thanks! It’s heated via the floor heat and unfortunately no direct ac in this room
How long did the entire process take?
Can anyone explain why everyone does almost fully white bathrooms? Is it because of materials or just preference?
Great work!
Do you shoot your work on an iPhone or on a camcorder
Thanks, Panasonic Lumix g7
Do your price estimates include labor or just the materials?
12:17 I always assumed they did it that way in order to force us to buy mosaics as decorative accent strips for the middle of the wall to avoid getting the tiny slivers
You layed the porcelain without uncoupling schluter layer.
Can we do that?
Great work
Thanks for the video. two questions: 1. how do you make sure the shower floor and rest of the floor are flush? I'm not sure how to verify it as there is the thin set and so forth. 2. do you sometimes make the shower floor with a mud or always use this foam base?
You just measure. If your shower pan is 1” thick and you recess the floor 3/4” you now have a 1/4” left. You know Ditra heat is 1/4” so the 2 surfaces will be flush. Both the pan and the Ditra need thinset to be installed so there’s no point factoring in the height of the thinset.
I personally never use mud. I like the foam bases
@@WorkinwithWolkon thanks. yea need to calculate carefully. cant make any mistake there. i love the curbless option MUCH more than the standard one especially on small bathrooms
Love your world can you come to Long Island New York?
Could you tell me which model of shower faucet you installed if you are Yam kind I congratulate you all your work is very professional I congratulate you
Not sure sorry
Interesting with the greenboard in shower. Would red gard be sufficient on this instead of the schluter membrane?
It’s recommended to use cement board with red gard, I would assume due to any possible pinholes created during the installation of the red gard
How dare I ask you to come to do my bathroon in São Paulo, Brazil?? Lol
Glueing casing is absolutely the way to go, prevents cracked miters.
Hey, do you always install the venting through the roof? Ever go through to the soffit?
Who's the glass manufacturer?
👍👍
Excellent work. What size is the bathroom?. I already framed a 8ftx7ft space in my master bedroom but I feel it's a too big for a master. I'm thinking on resizing it to 8ftx5ft which the 5ft feet is the shower pan size and I want to make sure the 5ft is big enough and comfortable to move around. In your video @12:42 looks like it's size is x length by 5ft or 6ft width. Kindly advise :)
Thanks! Bathroom is 9x5
Good luck with your renovation!
@@WorkinwithWolkon thanks for the quick reply and for the info. :)
this price is real? It seems so low compare to Seattle area
You are 😻
There are so many comments, not sure if you address it.. what was the original size of the room before you started and what is the size of the ensuite add on
What were the measurements of the bathroom
Okay we get that if your schluter system fails there's already water leaking but what cement board does it prolongs the effect of the leak meaning the damage is not going to be as bad as if you have drywall
Of course cement board will hold up to water better than drywall but it just doesn’t matter. You’ll need to replace your entire shower regardless
Wow
Can you explain the purpose of those dead-end capped pex lines in the shower to the left and right of the valve? Are those to reduce pressure in the lines?
My plumber did that but my understanding is it’s a hammer arrestor used to reduce the banging when shutting off the water. I believe what he did wasn’t actually optimal however as they now make a product you can put in that won’t fill with water over time
Look up water hammer arrestor online if you’d like to learn more
@@WorkinwithWolkon Thank you!! That's sort of what I was guessing, but wasn't sure if it was necessary. Pex pipes in my house bang all the time, so maybe something to it...
How would you do this in a raised ranch on a slab I have a full bathroom on this floor and laundry room on the other side of this wall.
Jackhammer
What about traveling to Texas ,😀
Does the 17k include labor?
what shower valve and trim kit do you use?
Not sure what this one was sorry. Typically I use a cheap amazon product SR Sunrise I believe
How I wish you were here in Las Vegas. But let me know you got a place for free just renovate my master bath
whats the name of the flor tile ?
what if I pay for your plane ticket?
Hello, would you ever work in the States (future work) ?
No immediate plans to do so
I don't know if you will see this but anyone is free to answer. Can you give me some guidance on how to acquire the skills necessary to do the work you do? I would like to pursue a career in this field but I'm not sure what's the ideal way to go about it.
Personally I started with an electrical apprenticeship. Some time after becoming a licensed electrician (5 years to get your license) I branched out. I started by renovating my moms bathroom (All I knew going into it was electrical, the rest I learned through RUclips) and did more and more after that. Alternatively if you wanted to specifically renovate bathrooms for example, you could try to get a job working for a contractor that specializes in that.
@@WorkinwithWolkon Thanks a lot for the response. 😁
Amazing job btw. Wanted to get a better idea on how the plumbing was completed if possible?
Thanks, I’ll include some more clips in my next video where I re do the other bathroom that this plumbing ties into
Great. Thank you
so you are saying its not necessary to use cement board just as long as i use that cloth for water proofing. i see people use cement board and that cloth or the pink stuff.
If by pink stuff you mean redgard or another liquid style waterproofing then you need cement board. For membrane style systems like schluter you can use drywall. Always go by what the manufacturer says
@@WorkinwithWolkon okay, got it.
Man, you travel to US to do one job you end up with years of work before you come back to your house in Toronto
Man, you make the prettiest bathrooms. I don't know how much say you have in color choices, but I've yet to see one that looks ugly that you built! Also, yes, lighting is very important in a bathroom! What's with bathrooms that have one light in the ceiling and it's never near your tub/shower, so you're basically bathing in the dark? Always felt that was a dumb decision...
Really nice bathroom.. but either the flooring near the left side of the sink l isn't level or the shower ponywall near the sink isn't straight,..cause the gap b/t the ponywall and the cabinet is slightly unleved...hhhmmm
💭🤔💭🤔💭🤔
orrrr you're looking at a shadow that changes in size due the the angle of the light in relation to the vanity... lol
Do a video of your bathroom. For sure this guy has a heated floor.
how much it cost for get this bathroom done?
End of video / description
@@WorkinwithWolkon thx just saw it. For the cost shows, it is include labour and material as well? or just material only?
How about South East Asia?..will you be willing to travel here to fix my neighbour's toilet?..just kidding man. Nice work as always..
Look just like min except the slipper y floor
