Thank you for chiming in.

Thank you for the comment. Please, take a video next time. I'd love to see how other guys do it.

@ love to show my stuff but I don’t know enough about TH-cam to do that. I’m old lol

It is quite simple to post a video. Give it a try.

For the bathtub we used the island drain and tied it to the membrane to waterproof around it. www.amazon.ca/ITD35-Freestanding-Bathtub-Plastic-Adapter/dp/B016M16DTC

Thank you. It was a challenge.

Hello, I've used regular, fine thread drywall screws, 1 1/4" for the first layer and 1 5/8" for the second. The gouge of the resilient channel is the same as of the metal stud and drywall screws have no trouble penetrating it. What kind of channel do you have?

@@renovationtoperfectionThanks for responding. I have a galvanized steel drywall furring channel from Home Depot.

Drywall screws are designed to go through that without difficulty, just give it a little push. But if you are trying to improve the acoustic of the wall, you should use resilient channel instead. www.homedepot.ca/product/bailey-metal-products-rc-plus-12-ft-resilient-channel/1000165782

@@renovationtoperfectionOkay I will try again with a different drill and maybe some more force. Also, I am using sound isolation clips instead of a resilient channel.

Drywall gun or an impact driver with the drywall bit (so you do not overdrive the screws) should do the job.

Acoustic is a very complicated task to deal with when it comes to houses as the sound travels and reacts with the structure in more than one way. It is not only about the volume, but about frequency as well. There is no silver bullet solution and I did combine all available practices and materials to achieve the wanted result.

@@renovationtoperfection Thanks for the reply!! Indeed - I think you did really well on this!

Hi there, I used 1/2" channel as well and the glass is probably 3/8". There is a gap on both sides of the glass when they put it in and as presented, I get my glass guys to shim it in the channel and silicone both sides all around to lock it in place.

Much appreciated. Have a great day.

I hear you. It's the cost of the full duct installation.

Loud bass music wasn't the reason for the project but please, read the pinned comment from the client about the performance. Their problem was children banging the pots and pans on the tile floor behind the party wall.

@@renovationtoperfection Thanks, but I still would like to see/hear a before and after test.

I understand but cannot help you.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Much appreciated.

Yes, you will need a bit of a slot in the tile above the Deco SG on the wall to be able to insert the glass. It is the same situation we had on the project, only in your case it is floor/wall. We had wall/ceiling. I would go depth of the floor channel +1/8" for a little bit of wiggle room. You do not want a chip on the glass when it is too tight to get the glass inserted. When I silicone the glass, I fill the slot above the channel and glass on the wall with silicone as well. It makes the slot almost invisible. Best of luck with your project.

Thank you for watching my video.

I hope it helps. If you would have any other questions, feel free to reach put.

I found over the years that any rough-in instructions are rarely correct and we always try on the trim (decorative flange) to see if it will be the right depth with the finished wall at the rough-in stage.

Thank you very much for your comment. I was using Schluter, gluing the Deco channel on the Kerdi Board and taping over the tiling flange with the Kerdi band. The channel is flush with the drywall on the corner and I've used Trimtex Tear-away corner bead for a clean finish detail on the drywall and also to plumb the drywall corner in line with the channel (which it wasn't originally). I you are using Wedi, setting the channel on the bead of caulking and than caulking over the tiling flange should handle the waterproofing.

I also took the Jolly edging, cut off the tiling flange and the grout spacer and glue it on top of the Deco SGC. That helped me to have enough depth for the tiles to be flush with the Jolly edging. th-cam.com/users/shorts4kSZR1pfNPY?feature=share

Thank you very much. Deco SG is a U channel installed with the tiles. The glass is inserted into the channel and secured with cleared blocks. Then the glass is sealed in the channel with silicone on both sides. I should make a video about this step.

@@renovationtoperfection Thank u for your response. I would really apreciate if u could make a video about this step.

Stand by. The glass for my current project is coming on the August 22. And it will be a good one. Floor to ceiling glass screen for the shower and 2 piece screen for the bench with mitered corner and set in 2 Deco SG channels - on the bench and on the ceiling.

@@renovationtoperfection Waiting for the video

Patience please, I have 13 short clips to edit into a video. Hope it will be worth it.

Thank you very much for your comment. Deco SG profile is designed to go behind the tiles, I've used Architectural reveal bead from Trimtex on the ceiling www.trim-tex.com/products/architectural-reveal-bead which is a mud on U channel for flawless ceiling detail. We have Deco SG on the wall and the glass is sitting on the clear blocks on the floor. Silicone secures it in place.

@@renovationtoperfection Thank you for reply! I assume as the glass is higher than the room it must be installed at the same time as tiles or drywall.

No, my glass installer brought it as a last thing. It would be terribly in the way and hard to keep clean and without damage. The ceiling channel was a 1/2" longer to allow the glass to slide up to the ceiling groove first, before sliding it to the Deco SG on the wall. We filled the gap with acrylic caulk and painted over to make it invisible on the ceiling.

Will try to repeat this in my upcoming bathroom remodel. Many thanks and good luck in all your new projects! :)

Thank you very much. If you would have any other questions I am not answering in a video, please do not hesitate to reach out to me directly.

Hello Gregory, this was a party wall in the living room and we didn't hang anything on it but it is 1" thick drywall layer. I belive you can hang just about anything on good quality drywall anchors as they will be fully embedded in the drywall layer and have more holding power than regular 1/2" drywall. But do not try to locate studs fir screws as that would greatly diminish the sound proofing characteristics of the wall.

its not. on the official gypframe brochure its positioned as it is in video

Thank you for your comment. This is just one step of a layered soundproofing project and the whole assembly perform better than expected! Yet, all the armchair experts are pointing to this one thing.

I agree, square bracket and round pole is different than what I would do. Mine has a screw with the wing nut on the square tube, acting as a clamp. It holds the round handle in pretty secure for years. If it gets loose, I will drill a hope through both tubs and secure it with the pin.

@@renovationtoperfection Yes, I was thinking of making the same modification. Seems that a $200+ roller should already have a bolt to hold the handle. This is a patch for a poor design.

@johnamygubesch496 Agreed. I expected more from Schluter. Otherwise the roller is a game changer if you have a large floor to cover with the Ditra membrane.

Thank you for watching the video.

Thank you for watching my videos. Here is the video you requested: th-cam.com/video/cx2oc-aWSoc/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared

I use exclusively everything from Schluter System. All properly connected and one warranty. Mix and match of different products, specially in the shower, doesn't usually end up being long lasting, beautiful result.

@@renovationtoperfection thank you so much for your quick reply! Love your work, I wish you were in my country so you could do my bathroom 😍

Much appreciated .

Thank you very much. I use Schluter System Ditra Heat membrane and heating cable. Schluter also has a nice touchscreen thermostat.

@@renovationtoperfection thank you so much! I thought it was that from the way it looked but wanted to be sure 😊

Bathroom for a princess. We named the project like that based on the price of the fixtures. The same toilets are in Buckingham Palace.

Actually, my cabinet maker (small custom shop) is usually the same price as the store bought cabinet

Thank you very much. Yes, center placed 3 slope linear drain with the tileable grate is my signature detail indeed.

I know, we scooped up half a pail of dirt.

That is true. Thank you for watching.

Hello , I usually use 3/4" thick plywood and install it flush with the face of the studs using Kreg pocket screws.

Thank you. This is in heritage building - brick walls and wood floor, 1 1/4" thick maple HW strips over 2" T&G pine boards as subfloor .

Of course, I am happy to share how I fo things and what tools I use. What exactly do you mean by relief cuts? I cut all my tile on the wet saw - MK Diamond 10" TX-4 misting saw.

Hey thanks for the reply. I meant relief cuts in the floor. The ones that follow the base slope. The cuts that are on a 45 going into the drain. I'm just trying to keep up with all the modern trends. I have done some curb less showers with large tiles but sometimes the tiles are too big to wet saw so I have tried using a grinder and then a montolit score saw. I will look into the MK diamond saw. Keep up the good work man, looks clean and crispy:)@@renovationtoperfection

I appreciate that.

It is set in with clear shims and siliconed around the perimeter on both sides.

Thank you.

Thank you Nico very much.

I am sorry but I do not understand what you mean by gouge out the Kerdi.

Hello Tommy, we placed the tub 2 1/2" off the walls to have enough room to fetch things in case of falling behind the tub. Yes, we did use the island drain and waterproof it to the Ditra Heat membrane. If you look father back on my channel, you may find more detail explanation about the Schluter installs and wet room floors. Now I just post before and after videos, maybe a bit in between. I have a playlist with some tips and tricks as well : th-cam.com/play/PLdReh4RxDTc1Bog8Krnkk5j44DcJV_ev-.html Where are you located? Best of luck with your project.

That's a misunderstanding. I was referring to the baseboard ( as a piece of trim along the bottom of the wall) being installed flush with the wall surface. I never used the baseboard heater in the bathroom.

Believe me, you wouldn't if you had seen it up close.

@@renovationtoperfection yeah probably lol
