    Good job, I’m slightly OCD so Lippage and crowning drive me crazy. Self leveling is definitely the way to fix that problem. I would suggest the easiest way to make sure it’s level is use screws in each corner and level from screw to screw and adjust the screw height to make it level. That way when you pour your self leveling you know how much to come up on each point. I find that self-leveling always doesn’t level correctly, it gives a reference to how much to pour and level.

    Self leveler is a real game changer. When I use it I always mix it close to where I'm going to be using it. It's really tough toting 2 mixed buckets and I can't imagine how bad it would be if a handle broke on a bucket as you wind your way through the customers home. Would not be good

    Here's another way to make the Level Quick seek Level and smooth itself out. Get your Sawzall out, without a blade in it and put the end of it against your plate or subfloor around the edges of the pan and turn it on!. This works as a vibrater. It works well for this application.

    This is what I'll be doing later this weekend as a homeowner. I've already replaced the rotted subfloor boards, tightened them up, and then fastened down plywood on top of that. Pretty close to level, but I want the foam Kerdi pan to live its best life (as my kids would say) on a perfectly level base wall to wall. Plus, I have some wiggle room on depth because the old shower was a thick mud bed in a lead pan. I've used a similar leveling product on a concrete basement floor. This two bucket shower area should be a breeze in comparison. I did learn from another source that I'll need to use reinforcement over the plywood, and the bonding agent, and your video provides even more evidence that it's worth the trouble.

    Tip for pouring the leveling in to the bucket prior to mixing.
    Hold the bag sideways on the rim of the bucket and cut the bag in the middle (on the side facing the bucket for obvious reasons) then flip the bag over flat with the cut side down and pinch the leveling out slowly. This will help with dust control if you are by yourself as the bag will cover the bucket opening, then leave the bag on while mixing until all the powder is mixed in

    A little trick I use to cover the drain hole on the floor is use a hole saw to cut circles out of OSB or other wood, just a little bigger than the hole, put a little bit of toilet wax on one side, just enough to seal between the floor and my wood circle, and screw it down. I have a few different sizes that I reuse, It works for me every time.

  • @JohnnyDedon-q6j
    @JohnnyDedon-q6j ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm not sure everyone here gets the jist of this video. When a foam pan is being installed, the foam pan is premade with a slope. The floor underneath needs to be level or the slope built into the pan will not be correct. The tape on the plywood subfloor is only to keep the liquid leveler from running through the seams when poured. The lathe is not a hard requirement but the area is large and the leveler is relatively thin so it adds additional strength to the subfloor. After this is done, Thinset will be used over the subfloor to set the foam shower pan. Totally waterproof if done correctly and will not fail unless the subfloor fails and that would be the same using any pan method. BTW, some of the newer "foam" shower pans and wall panels are fiber reinforced, some using kevlar.

    I'm amazed at the working time you had with that product. I've used it several times and it starts setting up in minutes. I get nervous mixing multiple buckets at once even if I'm right next to where it's going to be poured and there you are walking across an entire house, chatting in front of the camera and then casually pouring it. Surely you must have used a little extra water? Maybe even refrigerated/chilled water.

    I've just poured self leveling compound on plywood floor to create a level 'plinth' for an acrylic shower pan - it's 3/8" thick to bring it flush with the Ditra XL I'll be tiling on. Obviously I will still be fixing the pan in mortar on top of the SLC but I was advised that pre-leveling the floor makes that step a lot easier, especially if you're in-experienced. I used 3/8" ply as a dam on the outside edges (pending installation of the Ditra) with a thin line of silicone-latex caulk to make it water-tight. I also ran caulk along the base of the inside wall frame and stuck foam 'backer rod' to it to serve as an expansion joint - some folks use 'Sill-Seal', but I had some backer-rod left over from a previous tiling project. I'll also be using it in the expansion gap between the SLC and Ditra also when I come to install it. You don't mention any need for perimeter expansion joints in your video ? Does the mesh screen (slat) you used somehow compensate for that ? I assume it's intended to reinforce the SLC anyway ? Cheers.

The floor is off a little so I will use this technique to level the area. My question is: can I wait to cut the drain opening until after I use the leveler as long as I have cut away the metal lath in the drain area before I pour? I have never drilled through cured leveler with a hole saw. Thank you.

Expensive lesson learned. Do you have a video for pan removal? LOL.

    Also, I like using Huber zip flashing tape to put down on the subfloor instead of duck tape, do need there J-roller w/ that “Z” to press it down, but know when done get a good seal (bond) for “joining the sheets of plywood”. Is more expensive than duck tape, but do like it better as no water proof and at times duck tape just get “icky”. But everyone does things differently 😊
    As for foam, like the gray, as also keeps out pests/rodents and they won’t eat the stuff either when sealing off holes/gaps….but either way works👍🏻

    Hey man!! I love your videos. How do you level the shower pan with the foam pan? Does it come with it already? All you do is just tile over it? Is water proof? Thank you

    Does the thinset then go on top of the self lever after it cures or is there a primer needed ?

    Hey TileCoach, I see lots of information on shower pans, what about ceilings? What is your preferred substrate for putting tile on a ceiling?

    this weekend I am removing my shower tub and wall and Installing Flexstone walk in shower base with walls I hope subfloor is level but if not can I apply mortar to level and do I need to put Tar paper on subfloor plywood before putting mortar ?

    What experience have you had with Triton backer board ( I understand there is two different styles) and what did you think of it if you have had some? Also do you use fiberglass mesh tape on backer board seams under the Kerdi membrane? Thanks for the videos and providing testing on new products.

    Your videos are great. Why no tar paper?

    Where do you get those bucket liners?

    I was expecting that the stacked spacers would have been left in for the pour, as a guide to the where the leveler needs to rise to, just as a verification tool.

    I thought you were supposed to put tar paper or some other moisture barrier under the lath? Or is that only for concrete?
    And where do you get those rubber bucket liners?

    Any reason not to pour the self leveler onto the plywood directly? Or is the mesh required?

    How would i fill in cement to make up a stand up shower where theres a square ft hole around the drain? There is a empty area of soil under the slab so filling in wouldnt work
