    I think it's important to note that when using cement board as an underlayment, you should use modified mortar. The only reason to use unmodified in this case is because the Schluter Ditra system requires it.

    Can you install a heated floor element over the orage roll or under it?

    • @beckyroy6519
      @beckyroy6519 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is a different type of underlayment by Ditra that is specifically used for floor heating.

    what if i have vinyl flooring, what goes down before the tile?

    • @lowes
      @lowes  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We'd recommend removing the existing vinyl, then installing an underlayment: www.lowes.com/pd/Schluter-Systems-Tile-Membrane/3580144
      This video walks you through that process: th-cam.com/video/EuSav7p3xPY/w-d-xo.html
      Good luck, Charles!

    Is that orange material a water proof membrane ? IE what to use if tile a shower floor?

    • @lowes
      @lowes  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      RLSgardener shower floor bit different; depends on what you had before (replacing tub with shower or new tile floor in existing shower). Take a look at this for some additional information:

      You may want to stop by you nearest Lowe's and discuss your specific project with them. Thanks for watching our TH-cam channel.

    • @RLSgardener
      @RLSgardener 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks, I watched that one. You guys dont have a video on doing a tile shower base? That would be a good video =)
      None the less that orange material is not for a tile shower base but for general bathroom tile floor?
      I will be tiling over concrete slab. and the bathroom has an existing fiber shower pan that i want to replace with a tile base.

    • @lowes
      @lowes  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      RLSgardener You're right about the orange material...check out tile-ready shower bases instead. They give a sturdy, waterproof structure for the tile and eliminate the issues you'd have if you tried tiling over a regular shower base (flexing, rounded corners, drain height, tile adhesion, etc). Thanks for the tip about the tile shower base video, too :) Here's an article that may help in the meantime: www.lowes.com/projects/build-and-remodel/install-a-shower-floor/project

    Tile layout is not optimum. Should not have two thin strips of tile on each edge. To correct this from happening, the "center" reference line should be shifted by the distance of 1/2 tile width before starting to lay tile

    You have to wait 3 weeks before putting the toilet back on?? That seem a little long.

    • @lowes
      @lowes  9 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      That's the preferable option if you can wait, but not a mandatory. Grout sealer is applied largely for aesthetic reasons (protection against stains), so it's not the end of the world if you leave the hidden under-toilet area unsealed.
