    Corian is waterproof and comes in 60" wide eliminating the one seam in the middle of the back wall. There are other plastic or man made walls that are waterproof. I have a shower and bath walls 60" wide made of acrylic that were installed in 1986 and still in good shape.

    No disrespect but you never use cement board without waterproofing it... Because those panels will leak in the future.... This is no different than what these local bath fitters and bathroom in a day, people use.. has a contractor, I rip out so many of these systems it's not even funny.... And I generally find so much rot and mold behind those panels that it wind ups costing the customer so much more money to repair.... I'm not busting on the work you did, just try to offer a little bit of advice... Always use a waterproof membrane on any backer board... It's just one simple step that can potentially save you thousands of dollars in the future...

      Facts. I’m literally remodeling my Mom’s bathrooms because the appraiser said their was mold in the walls through a single freaking crack in the grout. My mom’s lived here for about 27 years. It was a brand new shower too. I was told if they water proofed the walls then I would’ve just had to replace the tile with panels to make it easier for her to clean. This turned into a nightmare!
