    As a professional tile installer and business owner love the video and anything DIY I think it’s awesome to show people the process. Just wanted to throw a few things I noticed that could help on your next project! For any tile that is longer then 15” you should try to use at least a 1/2” x1/2” towel for better coverage and also like you did back butter the tiles. Love schluter use it on every job, not sure if you did but after you waterproof you should like the thinset cure for a full 24 hours and then do the water test since the Schluter can’t absorb the moisture like cement board it’s good to let that cure. Over all I would do things differently but everything you did was correct and you shouldn’t have a leak! Again just want to help pass some information for your next project, keep killing it!

    You’re the reason I started doing projects around my house. In a video you said that you weren’t afraid to fail and that’s why I didn’t do home improvement but those words stuck hit home for me and made me realize that I was more then capable of doing it myself.

    @AndrewThronImprovements 3 года назад +5

    Thanks for this! Just did a very similar project with the Kerdi Membrane, but used Schluter “All set” mortar for warranty purposes. But if the custom building products mortar works, wish I would gone that way. Would have saved me about $100 😅

  • @ryanmuth2390
    @ryanmuth2390 3 года назад +1

    Looks good.
    One bit of tiling advice, make sure you are always combing the ridges perpendicular to the length of the tile not parallel, that allows the air to escape easier for the ridges collapse when you set the tile. Gives a stronger bond with better coverage.

    Couple notes: the drain grate needs to be tapped down just lower than the tile when setting shwr floor. So water doesn’t pool around drain.
    Bullnose tile on outside edges, could’ve been trimmed to line up with main field tile grout lines.
    Painters tape is your best friend when using black grout lol
    They sell an aerosol can of knockdown texture for patching that ceiling back where it matches existing knockdown. Might be a nice finishing touch.
    They make an inexpensive pipe cutter for attaching to drill. You could’ve just cut the 4” and pulled it out to make room for Schluter drain flange.
    Just thoughts for the next one. Great video. Good content :)

It’s been 4 weeks maybe two full weeks of work.

  • @gray09r56
    @gray09r56 3 года назад

    It's called a shower curb. Sanded or non-sanded grout also pertains to whether or not the tile is glass, porcelain, or ceramic and if it will scratch -- for example, use non-sanded grout for glass.

    @demitra43 3 года назад +1

    Great job I really like it. One thing I want to add is these type of tiles do not need to be sealed only the grout.

    • @nob.s.renovations8946
      @nob.s.renovations8946 3 года назад +1

      Grout definitely does need to be sealed because with time water will absorb through the grout and get stuck between the tiles and the water proof membrane. Also it will cause tiles to crack and your grout will grow mold and mildew and start to look unpleasant to the eye.

    • @demitra43
      @demitra43 3 года назад

      @@nob.s.renovations8946 Yes sir. Also depending on what kind of sealer you use it should be reapplied accordingly. Another good tip is to keep harsh cleaning products away as these actually just work against the sealant. It may look clean for the moment, but you've just created porous grout. 👍

  • @Runn4est
    @Runn4est 3 года назад

    Live and you learn for sure. I had to "pour" my preslope twice because I must not have gotten a good mix the first time and it was cracking. That was painful when I realized that, but doing it right pays off!!
    Oh also 3/8 or 1/2 notch would have made the leveling a lot easier on those tiles!

    Learning has occurred! Seems like a good idea to use the Kerdi membrane w/ green board instead of the Kerdi board. I like the idea of just overlapping the membrane 2 inches instead of using the Kerdi band for the seems. Probably keeps the cost down too, I would assume. I didn't catch in the video, how did you fix the drain issue? How well did you match the texture on the ceiling? I have texture all over my house and hate it! Trying to see what best practices are out there before I tear into some of my drywall. Keep up the good work bud!
