- 🌟Window Waterproofing🌟
Why windows were ever put inside a shower....I'll never understand 😆
First step, remove any excess foam sticking outside of frame
Be sure the vinyl or metal frame of window is revealed
You want the entire 1/2" board to embed against the window frame
Shim sides to maintain a consistent reveal
Anywhere waterproof panels meets each other, add a generous amount of sealant
Apply a generous amount of sealant against window frame
Add additional sealant on bottom wood sill to provide enough sealant to pitch the bottom waterproof panel
Oozing sealant at window frame is a good gauge for sufficient sealing
If you do not see it oozing out as you press against window, pull panel and apply more sealant
This is especially important for a bottom sill
Be sure sill will pitch towards shower
You do not want puddling against window
Cut any excess paneling & keep flush with main wall
Any bulging sealant at window frame be sure to flatten & pull away from frame
Same process goes for all sides of window
First apply sealant to wall panel
Add plenty of sealant to frame of window
Along with a generous bead on top of the new window panel sill
Apply generous amount of sealant over all screws & washers
Apply generous amount to all seams & sill of window
Feather out with a putty knife
It's not a bad idea to fully embed sealant over the window sill
you can also apply enough to pitch the sill further if needed 👍

This guy shooting a youtube video for us and dripping sweat. Stay hydrated bro!
You can totally tell Steve's from Pennsylvania with his accent. 😅 Thanks for the video tutorials! Definitely giving me the confidence to do more on my own!
Hi , great video, it is helpful for me , what is your sealant? is that modified thinset works ?
Great video. Is that sealant water cleanup?
Slanting widow sills for run-off (inside & out) sure helps prevent problems down the road, like carpenter ants, since they LOVE wet wood. 🐜
What are you using for sealant in this video
would you use this same method for Shluter Kerdi-board also?
Do you ever have trouble with the irregularities (little ridges/bumps) left behind by the sealant when you begin laying tile? Thanks!
Do you like glass block as another option?
What about water getting between the windows? Water geting up by the lock and running down, is this an issue? We are renovating 2 baths and they unfortunately both have windows...
What size window is that, please?
Do you all not use a window flashing membrane like blueskin as a base layer between the raw wood and backer board?
New construction yes 👍
What's the chaulk you are using?..
Hydro blok sealant 👍
