@@starwarsjunkie7776 Money is no issue with my customers I just haven’t seen this stuff till this video. I’ve used the Prova board which’s similar. I’ve only used the Prova in tub surrounds so I’m assuming the pans are similar to this product in this upload. I like the drain in this product. The schluter drains are fine but this looks much nicer. Regardless it’s much nicer to use these products than it is to float walls. That’s the best way but it’s so labor intensive for me. Age sucks haha.
@@wasntme3651the idea of floating walls again sends shivers down my spine. Haven’t floated a wall in years. Agreed, very labor intensive, but a tried and true system. Modern solutions have proven to be just as good.
@@719vol So far so good on the new technology but I guess we will see In A hundred years. The new stuff is much nicer to work with. I wish it was around before I’ve mixed a couple thousand boxes of mud and carried countless full five gallon buckets of floor and wall mud. I was a idiot when I was younger, always had to outwork everyone and now I’m sore haha.
@@wasntme3651I’m seeing more and more clients change out complete rooms in 10 yrs or less. We just finished a mud room and master bath that we had only did 5 years ago. Client tired of her previous choices and wanted it swapped. Happy with the work, just felt the tile color and design were “dated”. Her choice. Her money. Very few are building things and thinking it’ll to last 100 yrs.
I like how she did the flood test a very important part...but dont forget to measure the water level check for water loss in an hour...if water level the same its good.
I don't think I would trust that system. Might work for a bit, but eventually those seams on the floor will leak. I think you got to build this stuff more in line like a backyard pond with a liner that goes up past the curb.
Yeah I'd do the sealent, tape, sealent like she did, then coat the whole thing with a thick coat of 8+9 or hydroban or at least redgard, than you have your liner of sorts for sure
To be water, curable does not mean that it needs water to cure. It just means that it can and will still cure even if submerged. But, from my experience, even sealants that say they can be applied wet or underwater, do not get the same results when actually applied wet or underwater.
Schluter is falling behind imo. Hydroban is a better product. This is more similar to a wedi system which is quite expensive. Curious to know the difference in cost between this system and wedi.
all youtubers out there? trying to get a nice shower. There is rules and regulations at your local building department or code department. Please make sure before you have anybody come into your restroom? They comply with codes that the state and your local City follows. It's very important to get it done right, not fast.
At that layer, it is. If you have a hard time trusting sealants, then I recommend asking someone who’s been around a while that warranties their work what they use. The stuff that sells from the big box stores to the typical homeowner is probably not the best route.
Then you need to modify the framing first. Or on a slab, pour it for that configuration. But you’ll run a water proof membrane beyond the shower’s allotted “edge” to help the transition.
I seen tons of sealant base waterproofing showers fell. Cause it separates from the sealant we're wall board meet Cause of movement. ALWAYS PUT 4 TO 6 INCH BAND OVER ALL CORNERS AND YOU WILL NOT HAVE PROBLEMS. I'm in Texas worse construction builds in the USA. Texas and Florida are the most wrongly build homes in USA. I'm a Texan but I learned how to tile and waterproof showers in California. Texas constractors are the worse builders in USA.
I dont care what anyone says, you go buy a bucket of ,hydroban, aqua defence, or red gaurd and you start painting all of it. That thinset shit will only water proof for so many years, it eventually deteriorates. The tile coach is right, that is the only way.
Came to ya channel cause I watched ya learning to weld just fyi. Pretty cool. And not only are ya cute and smart too! You got some bangin ass legs on you girl jezus. 😮 I kno you kno that already cause ya prolly stay in the squat rack and lunges guessing but it’s magical 🧙♂️
Who invented all this pre fabrication bullshit?! lol. What happened to the good old wonderboard, or floating walls. And waterproofing like old days. Lasted way longer! And better quality than cheap plastic and bs like this video! SMH
This looks much nicer to install than the Schluter system. I’m definitely going to give this a try on a future project. 👊🏼👍🏼
You get what you pay for. Schluter costs less, most likely.

Would love links to all the materials used in this vid!
The mesh tape is key, seen on TH-cam failures of weedie product without the mesh and second layer of sealant
Can you do a similar video for the rest of the shower? Than for doing the floor as well?
I like how she did the flood test a very important part...but dont forget to measure the water level check for water loss in an hour...if water level the same its good.
Does this pan come pre-sloped?
Where can i get this style of pan system

Is there a pre slope on that? I'm sure there is but I can't see it on the video, looks amazing though.
Hydro Blok comes with a pre-slope.
@@diesel104 cool! I'll have to give it a try on my next bathroom, thanks for the reply! 👍
Where do you get the materials for this?
How do you get the water out once you flood test it?
@@Jim_Bud normally you drain it, but in our case since this was a mockup we vacuumed it out with a wet vac
I like this. If it is water curable, does that mean you also have to spray the walls?
The moisture in the air will cure the wall sealant. Most caulking and silicones cure the same way.
To be water, curable does not mean that it needs water to cure. It just means that it can and will still cure even if submerged. But, from my experience, even sealants that say they can be applied wet or underwater, do not get the same results when actually applied wet or underwater.
How does it work with in floor heating?
Hi. Can you share the link for the water test plug. Thanks.
Google is your friend
What are the positives of using schluter over this? ( are u sponsored by hydro block btw?). This seems quicker and cleaner. What am I missing
Schluter is falling behind imo.
Hydroban is a better product.
This is more similar to a wedi system which is quite expensive.
Curious to know the difference in cost between this system and wedi.
GoBoard is an identical system now available at Lowes. They don’t make shower pans pans though.

Is that drain relying on sealant? Same question for the wall boards?
At that layer, it is. If you have a hard time trusting sealants, then I recommend asking someone who’s been around a while that warranties their work what they use. The stuff that sells from the big box stores to the typical homeowner is probably not the best route.
I have a question about the flood testing. How do you measure if there’s a leak somewhere?
Plug the drain, fill with water to premarked height, let set overnight, and check water height the next morning.
@@joeducosin3852 Is that really accurate? I’m mean, a few drops will never show but that’s enough to ruin the bathroom over the years.
Gratzi!

Come to new York I’ll reach u how to mud
You like this system more than kerdi?
Yes I don’t like handing with thinset
What if you want a flush floor?
Then you need to modify the framing first. Or on a slab, pour it for that configuration. But you’ll run a water proof membrane beyond the shower’s allotted “edge” to help the transition.
Do you have private lessons

No preslope visable

I did it in 49 seconds
Step 20. Tear it out because it leaks.
You forgot to say...with hydroblock
Nop thanks hot mop is almost life time guarantee
uhh, no use screw when over concrete as well 🤡
Step one, put hot girl with shorts sp everyone watches and makes you money in 50 seconds
Everything looks easy when u build it in a garage perfect plum studs level floor this is bs cause it’s never like this on a real Job
This lady has had so many showers fail. I would NOT TRUST IN HER METHODS WHATSOEVER!
