I've heard good things about the Schluter system. It is supposedly quite user-friendly. But the price, for a plastic product, is far far far too high. Unreasonably high. Bring the price down and maybe I'd be interested.
I'm using this same system but I'm also using a Schluter preslopped shower pan. My wood subfloor is a little out of wack/uneven. I called Schluter and they told me NOT to use self leveler but to use cement board on the shower floor to even it out before installing the pan. I would install the cement board as if I were tiling the floor. So I would burn the thinset in and then trowel to place the cement board down. Then trowel the top of the cement board to place my foam pan. But Schluter has an excellent tech team you can call at any time if you don't want to guess at things.

Thanks for this very helpful clip. I read some experts who strongly suggest that we don’t put waterproof membranes between cement board and the tiles; just apply thin set. So, I was wondering if the direct application of the tiles on the cement board is another approach for all tiles installation or an approach to deal only with ceiling tiles. Thanks 😊
I would always use some type of waterproofing on cement board. Here’s why, showers produce water and vapor. And it’s the vapor that can easily create mold inside shower walls. KERDI membrane or liquid membranes reduce the flow of vapor into the stud walls. So I use waterproofing on the walls for that reason
Hello, at 1:00 mark, is this step necessary if the shower pan is already installed? In other words, do I still need a 1/4 expansion gap between the lip of my shower pan and bottom cement board?
@@HomeRepairTutor okay, thank you! Also, maybe I missed it but I don’t recall hearing anything about an expansion gap between the main, left and right wall. Is such gap required?
Cement board is water resistant. That means it isn’t waterproof and vapor will go through it. Thus, I recommend waterproofing it with KERDI or a liquid membrane
Can you install double cement boards ? If yes how would you install them ? Screw them or use adhesive ? Do you need to also include the mesh in the middle ?
I'm doing a surround over a tub. Do I need the 1/8" expansion gap between the bottom and top boards? I'm not doing tile, I'm using a glue up surround. Some of my studs are greater than 16" apart but I have a chunk of plywood horizontally that will add extra support in the middle a bit. Some studs are closer than 16". Hmm... So the cut off edge is put down against the previous board instead of having it at the top? That's good to know.
How much gap can you get away with before trying to shim the wall board? I running about a 3/16 gap between stud face and the cement board and what is the preferred method of shimming
I would have used KERDI-BOARD but it wasn’t in stock at the time, that said, cement board can be more affordable so it’s a good option if you cannot find KERDI-BOARD
What are those little metal plates called that you used to protect the plumbing? I wish you were local so I could hire you. You are such a conscientious worker and clearly know what you're doing. Plus, you seem like a nice guy. I'm tackling this job by myself for the first time in two bathrooms in a property I'm flipping. I'll save a ton of money, but I want to make sure I do it right the first time. Quality work is important to me.
I called Schluter and they said it was perfectly fine. I'm a DIYer and could not afford the Kerdi walls so I went with Kerdi peslopped pan and Durrock for walls. They did tell me to use the SMOOTH side out on the cement board because the small points on the rough side have a chance of making cuts/holes in the Kerdi membrane when you install it on the walls.
Most authorities say you need 1/4 inch between the cement board and the rim of the tub or shower. Others say don't come down over the flange at all. This is a very contentious issue.
That’s no problem, finish the tile then Kerdi-Band or mesh tape the seam. Use setting type joint compound to feather the transition, eg 2-3 passes with 6” then 10” then 12” knives, sanding after each coat. Then prime and paint
It’s only waterproof if you use a liquid or sheet membrane over the cement board. Here’s a video showing how to use KERDI membrane th-cam.com/video/IDCgy6SyFjY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=l32pu1EwHvLumBsH
Hi Jeff, love all your videos. You are a fantastic presenter! Does that thin set wick water the same way the Schluter banding wicks water when using thinset to adhere it? I was watching the Tile Coach's videos and that seemed to be a big issue. Can you please share your thoughts on that? Do you have a thin set that you recommend to prevent that wicking? Thank you.
Thank you and I'd be happy to address those concerns. Also, I'm not paid by Schluter or any waterproofing company. I just like Schluter products because they work and the technical support is the best - I do custom installations and lean on them a lot!! Here's how Schluter's system works: thin-set bonds to the fleece on the shower tray and to the KERDI-BAND. The thin-set has to be mixed to the correct consistency and applied with the appropriate trowel. For example, Schluter ALL-SET has specific directions for how much water to use for membranes like KERDI or KERDI-BAND. Use that those mixing directions. Then apply the thin-set with the KERDI trowel held at a 45-degree angle, this maximizes the trowel notch. Immediately embed the KERDI-BAND or KERDI into the substrate and express just enough thin-set from the banding or KERDI to make it flat. Over time, thin-set crystals will grow and anchor into both sides of the fleece, e.g. on the shower tray and KERDI-BAND. Those crystals will physically prevent water molecules from penetrating the bond. I cannot vouch for the type of thin-set Tile Coach used or how he mixed it or his water ratio. Keep in mind, his experiment is a N = 1. Meaning, it's one sample. In real world experimentations (my background is chemistry) a sample size of 1 is not a meaningful number. I'm not trying to be disrespectful, just objective. If you more questions I'd be happy to answer them here or via email at jeff@homerepairtutor.com
I always add horizontal blocking between studs were the two sheets will meet and the bottom when using Duroc. It's very breakable and brittle and most of the time it's already lost its structural integrity before you even install it. Even though technically it doesn't add any structural integrity according to building inspectors. But you know what I mean, it gets all floppy. Don't get me wrong I think it's still a good product but needs reinforcement. It won't wick like Hardi and it's not foam. (My overkilling self won't let me use foam). When installed correctly with taping, mudding and waterproofing I think it's a better overall system. But I certainly don't claim to know everything just my opinion.
@@liztaylor85139 when I use durock I use mesh tape, thinset and then redgaurd. I don't like the kerdi or shluter stuff. But if using it, they make a 6 inch banding fabric to use in place of the mesh tape, thinset and redgaurd. But yeah I'd do all seems and corners.
If your shower or bath is meticulously maintained so that caulk is renewed as necessary, water will never penetrate the wall. If your studs are always dry you have nothing to worry about. Don't lose sleep over this.
Can anyone answer this . I have installed backer board onto a concrete wall but there is a small amount of flex in parts , Can you tile onto that or does it need to be rock solid ?
Rock solid is always best. If you know where the gap is fill it with thinset or some type of liquid nail. If you’re tiling over wavy cement board you’re gonna find yourself adding or subtracting thinset on the tile too compensate
Those boards (USG Durock) 1/2” - are not water proof. It is water durable, but also porous So usually a waterproofing membrane goes on top of the board *after* or a plastic waterproofing goes behind the board *before*
I don’t like it because of the fibrous construction, getting that airborne isn’t good for lungs or skin. Plus I feel like it’s easy to put a screw through the foam. I like sticking with the system approach and maintaining the warranty as well. Just my thoughts
Screws will fail only if continuously wet. They'll then slowly rust over the years and fail. But if your walls are continuously wet you have much, much bigger problems.
Why would anyone use cement board when you can use GoBoard or Sentinal? So much easier and by the time you add the cost of waterproofing to the cement board, the foam boards are about the same cost.
Badly ventilated cavities behind bathroom walls. Exactly what you should AVOID creating. Fill them with something resitant to water. Do not just assume your waterprrofing will be perfect for many decades.
If you wear a mask while cutting cement board, your viewers will have a visual memory of that. So they’ll be more likely to remember their mask when preparing to work. You’re saying “wear a mask,” but you’re not modeling it.
Tant qu'à moi, ces panneaux sont inutile dans une chambre de bain et même pour une chambre d'eau car ils absorbent l'eau et de plus, il faut mettre un polymère pour les rendre hydrofuges. C'est ridicule quand les panneaux de gyproc hydrofuge coûtent bien moins cher que cette mer..de.
I won't use cement board. It's too porous. Green board with a rubberized coatings applied correctly if far superior. Also in this day in age doing tile is ridiculous when there are PVC systems with any finish you want and no grout. Grout sucks. The really good stuff is not available to consumer DIYers like me.
My biggest mistake? Going with Durock backboard for walls! It's only me, it's heavy and hard to work with! Your right. I've watched soooo many videos and should have gone with the Green board! Especially with all the good waterproofing that is out there now.

what exactly is the point of cement board if the waterproofing is done by the kerdi membrane which is also protected by the finish
The cement board gives you a solid, immovable surface. The Kerdi foamboard is flimsy in comparison.
Can i set cement walls before schluter pan and use red guard instead for waterproofing
Walls need to sit on top of the pan so pan goes in first... yes you can redguard the whole shower after pan is down and walls are hung.
