Omg I wish I had come across this sooner. I did a good job, but watching this video, I would've gotta it done faster and better, but I definitely made sure I have a good slope. Thanks for the video
I'm working on a concrete slab in my home and want floor tiles at doorway entry same level throughout bathroom, so I jacked hammered and ground somewhat the recent shower section only, down about 40mm min, and the drain end I jackhammered the slab right out where the strip drain will go as I was getting thin on the original “100mm” slab thickness...question now, my recess slab is not even/ smooth and rough let's say. I will get a pro into to tile and waterproof, but wondering if I should try to make the recess far more even and fill in the dips more so around the edges and what will be the entry to the shower ( strip drain going in opposite end ) my thought process is if he waterproof under the screed with the recess slab not being a nice even surface is that the water that has worked it's way though the grout and screed may sit in these low spots under the screed on top of the membrane and not be able to drain away.... What do you think or am I over thinking it ? Sorry long winded comment from me 😊
So what are you going to use for the walls here? If I were to use hydroban board would I just lay it on top of the mud and then thinset+tape? Or a bead of laticrete caulk between the side wall and floor?
Hi, I am having a hard time understanding this. I have read that the slope for a curbless shower should be a minimum slope of 1/4" (0.25") and the maximum slope should be 1/2" (0.5") per foot. And this should be from the drainage out to all directions until the height of 2" is reached. So follow the rule detailed above a curbless shower with a slope of 1/4" (0.25") should have a distance of 8'. 1/4" (slope) x 8' (distance) = 2" (shower pan height requirement). If we follow the established rule with a 1/2" (0.25) slope then the distance should be 4'. 1/2" (slope) x 4' (distance) = 2" (shower pan height requirement) What am I doing wrong here? Please help me understand this.
Funny, we both did mud videos this week. Nice job.
😆 over concrete too 😆 everyone please head over to sals video! Much nicer looking than mine 😃 th-cam.com/video/9S6wEcdU_QU/w-d-xo.html
No matter how good you are, or how much you have done something, mistakes happen. Moment of silence for the "new pants" 😂

Very helpful videos. P.S. I'll be sure not to ask you what time it is while you're holding a cup of coffee.
So you can get away with only one float ? Ive always done 2? Pre float then liner then second float
Great looking product line of various shirts!

Hi is that underfloor heat wire for drying or comfort thanks
Warm feet 🦶
@@BathroomRemodelingTeacher doesn’t the hot shower water do that ?
Does mud need to dry for three actual days from your experience sir thank you
Depends on brand. 48 hours for a liquid, and as soon as it’s able to trowel thinset on with a sheet membrane

Do you think that drain could be cut to fit into a corner? I prefer the drain being in a corner.
I suppose you could 👍
From a. Real plumber..small cans of primer only. Pour out one forth.
Good advice even if you are a fake plumber 😆
I've heard of the rule of never taking purple primer into customers houses due to spillage. Shit happens bro
Wouldn't pass inspection in all the states I've tiled in...
