We had a shower leak in our brand new build home. It was the shower over the kitchen, I noticed water spots. Kept an eye on them, when they got bigger I called the builder. They had to cut open the ceiling. The insulation was absorbing most of the water, but it would have eventually been saturated. The leak was caused by them not using the silicone to seal one of the fittings. We had a big hole in our kitchen ceiling for a week while the moisture dried. Definitely use extra silicone.

Hey man, just wanted to thank you for your channel. I completely gutted and am remodeling my master bathroom alone with 0 experience in carpentry beforehand. Vast majority of the knowledge I gained to tackle it came from your well-presented videos.
Bathroom looks great and thanks for the shout out 😊 Love the full tiled wall and awesome work on the custom vanity. So excited to see the rest of the projects of your home!
Oh man, I can't believe I missed this video. I LOVE the small rectangular artisan tiles. And you did a beautiful job with the custom vanity. I always learn what not to do as I go with home renovation, which kinda sucks when you invest time and money into something that doesn't pan out. It's still a valuable experience to find out what works best or is the most efficient. I think I would have put the green tiles on the wall rather than in the shower because they're so beautiful and deserve to be seen. With the gold faucets and sconces? Ugh, that would be sooo gorgeous. But it's your own home so I hope you're content with the end result. 😊 Be proud, it looks beautiful.
maaaan this is so cool to see. Getting some creative insight with this beautiful bathroom. Love to see the torch marks on the mixing valve studs. I'd say it's better to tile first and vanity after so you can put the ladder straight up against the wall to tile close to the ceiling without stepping on the vanity. Also makes it easyer to not worry about cutting tiles close to fit to the vanity. That is a lot of tile cutting! Glad to see you coming so far to buy and renovate your own home, a prophecy fulfilled from your early videos where you said "If I do enough of these bathrooms, Maybe one day I'll own one." and now you have! Congratz brother.
We were planning to choose grey floors and black faucets for our bathrooms, but this video made us change our mind. Great choice of colors and craftsmanship.
Congrats on the new place! 🎉 The bathroom reno looks incredible, and we’re so excited to see our HOROW T05🚽as part of it. Thanks for featuring us in your new home-can’t wait to see more!
Welcome back. I love the finished work. If I won the lottery I'd fly you to my province and let you renovate the entire house; I love your work. I'm excited to see how you renovate the rest of your home.
Looks great. I like how you built the window frame in one piece and put it in. I thought I was the only one that did that. Definitely the high quality way of doing it. You can always judge skill level by the little things like that.
Looks great Liam! I like the combination of gold and black. We’re glad that you have finally found your home. Looking forward to see more of your renovations. Salutations to you and your coworker Sebastian. You’re a great team 😊
Just bought my house and I watch your videos hoping one day I’ll get the courage to DIY Reno vs paying someone. I think I’ll take the leap after my wedding. 😅 good work man love your channel. One of the best out there, straightforward. No production, no gimmicks. Love it
Im gonna be doing a full gut reno for my in laws bathroom after doing some major reno work in our own place for the first time and your vids have been incredibly informative. Oh and congrats on the new place!
Yoooooo Liam!! Just getting around to finishing this video now. I remember vividly seeing the notification popup while I was out driving & contemplated pulling over to watch it right them & there LOL!! Graham (Grant, I know his name is Grant!!!)... & Bianca are freakin awesome also!! Fantastically done as always Bud (but still always curious as to why you choose to reno perfectly good bathrooms) LOL!! Blessings my friend, let's goooo & Dirty Jersey out!!
Well done once again! great choices and impeccably executed in every respect, as usual. Interesting way to Y the singk drains. I just did a Y in the middle and put a cleanout access just below it if it ever needs snaking, but I am no pro. On a side tangent, I wonder why more folks don't opt for a shower panel instead of having all the plumbing behind the wall? I put shower panels in 3 of my bathroom renos and I love them. Upside is they are very easy to remove and replace completely with a new one if it every suffers some kind of failure. The 2 in my house have an LCD displaying the water temperature so I can get it just right before entering the shower, and cost $250 cdn each. cool LED lights built in powered by the water flow, no wiring needed. Much simpler plumbing and a single hole the pex pokes out of high up on the wall. fwiw
Thanks! A clean out would be simpler but then you need to be able to access it through the vanity. Personally I just prefer the look of standard fixtures over a shower panel but to each their own!
Instead of screwing plywood into the niche and having to patch it, you could cut two spacers that would hold the plywood up. Alternatively, you could use two trigger clamps in spreader mode to hold the plywood up. Beautiful job, btw.
The only fallback to using a drywall screw vs a structural screw I would imagine is longevity in strength and exposure to moisture. I realize the systems you use, installation, and execution is above industry standard. I just can’t help but think about longterm movement around the fastening points. Drywall screws aren’t the strongest, but the load on your tub won’t weaken them too much. It’s definitely one of those circumstances where it’s fine and will be, but maybe susceptible to (one of those) long term situations we don’t foresee. Probably fine though bro. Good work man!
As someone who has 4 x 4 in grouted tiles in their shower my immediate thought when I saw the 2 x 6 tiles going in was that is going to be a b to clean. Eventually I will talk my husband into redoing our bathroom. Its OG to the house (1986) he wants to do a walk in shower but honestly if we are doing it ourselves id rather just shove another tub in there and use large format tiles for the tub surround.
Also want to add that i just went in and measured everything in our master bath.... looks like we will need a custom vanity done as our double sink vanity spans the entire 8'3" wall. oi vei
That looks nice and looked like nice work too! I agree on not mixing the gold and the black, but honestly (my taste) I would have done all black instead of all gold. Like you said, though, eye of the beholder :)
9:47, keep the white tape hasple the other way around. That way you do not have to do that thingy with your thumb. Thus then the tape goes over the thread and then down towards the hasple. In the vid you have the tape on top of the thread and the on top of the hasple ( that white round holder). When the tape goes over the thread and then down to the hasple, you make the tension with the hasple and you do not need to use your thumb like that anymore. Like the 8 form or like the S shape.
If you feel like royalty using the new smart toilet, you will be giving it the royal flush after every use. I see why you wished you had gone with gold in the shower. It would have provided uniformity as well as symmetry, but in the end, it still looks high end and luxurious on a budget. Nice shout out to Golden Key Design, I have been subscribed to them for a while, and their bathroom renovation was beautifully done as well.
What I love most about the toilet that there is no ugly tank showing. I would prefer a wall hung one. Still wondering when you will install that some time. (I' ve got 2 in our house, space saving, clean looking, a breeze to clean around and under).
I do have a video up where we installed a wall hung toilet. They are nice but most people don’t want to pay that price for a toilet. Especially now a days when for the same money you can get a bidet toilet like this one with all sorts of features
I wish you made a walkthrough on the measurements. like how you find where to drill the holes in the drywall, in the sink for the faucets, and how you knew where to cut the tiles between the mirrors to find the electric wires.
Nope! I had cement ready for that purpose but when I was looking through the tubs sheets it said specifically not to do that. I suppose the idea is the black grid system underneath will fulfill that purpose. So far it’s been great, feels solid but we’ll see how it holds up.
Water moisture will get those fasteners and over time they will rust and tore apart. Might take a few years but will happen. These fastener don’t do anything but just secured the tub to the wall. If they all break your tub unlikely move unless someone push it out.
Renovating my bathroom right now too. Looks like we chose the same tub. My builder has never used the tub frame that came with the tub, and is contemplating still using a mortar bed with it. What do you think?
Mine feels solid without the mortar but I did make sure the black grid was sitting perfectly flush along the sub floor. I think if I were to do it again I’d choose a more standard tub without the grid system and just use a mortar bed though
@@WorkinwithWolkon Thank you for your reply. My guy is a perfectionist, so I'm not worried about the outcome. He will probably still use the mortar. I'll let you know what he decides.
I was told that schluter doesn’t recommend running the drita over the self leveler (not sure why) but was there something you needed to address to make it work?
Pex a is superior in every way Faster to make connections, easier to make connections, more flexible piping We used to use pex b because the expansion tool for pex a is costly but if you do enough of this it just makes sense
Question, those gang able boxes do you still like to use such small boxes. With new smart switches they are so big and need more room. I have personally gone to 3" deep boxes and it makes wiring so much easier with the extra space. Any reason why you like the smaller ones?
Honestly it’s just as simple as habit. Back when I did electrical full time we would only use deep boxes when code dependant and I’ve just kinda kept doing that. For bathroom switch boxes it would make more sense to use the deeps for sure as almost all the switches end up being larger smart switches. However because I’ve done so much electrical work I’ve never had a problem with wire management and making them fit. But that would be a good idea for future projects as it will make it easier on the next guy and myself
@@WorkinwithWolkon Thanks for the reply and answer. Maybe it's practice but I feel like I am always struggling to get all those wires back in the box without feeling like I am pinching them to a 180 sometimes. Awesome videos BTW keep them up, wife and I get so many ideas from them. We are about to do a bathroom Reno of our small bathroom upstairs (7x7)
Where can I buy the smart toilet (Harrow T05)? I contacted the manufacturer and was told there is no distributer of this toilet or brand in Canada. I am surprised because you said (in the video) that you were given this unit for your review
Nope! As long as your prep everything well and do a good job of pushing it down it’s really hard to peel it up later. The adhesive they use gets stronger over time too
Question!What course do u do to become a general tradesmen like you? U do plumbing, plastering, electric, tiling and etc, its almost 3 yrs course each in the uk
20:47 reminds of days of penny tile w/o backing and setting all by hand, UGH! Not bad on small shower/bathroom, but 12’x12’ and more….gets annoying and end up w/ CRAZY EYES
Question : why put in a rainhead where the showerhead is supposed to go. Why not just run a line to the ceiling and have the rainhead come from there? Rainheads coming out of the wall always look chintzy to me. Excellent otherwise.
1. Most kits will include a wall mounted rain head instead of a ceiling mount so it’s just more readily available 2. It’s a lot more work to have to come from the ceiling then from the wall 3. With it coming from the wall it can be easily changed for a regular shower head as not everybody likes rain heads
I just finished telling my wife last night that your bathroom videos are the best and that you haven't dropped any in a while. BEST FRIDAY lets go!
Hahaha love it, thank you so much!
The return of the king
I got nothing on Aragorn
HE IS BACK!!!! That extra silicone is such a good and cheap insurance that can save you thousands in the future. Excellent work!!
We had a shower leak in our brand new build home. It was the shower over the kitchen, I noticed water spots. Kept an eye on them, when they got bigger I called the builder. They had to cut open the ceiling. The insulation was absorbing most of the water, but it would have eventually been saturated. The leak was caused by them not using the silicone to seal one of the fittings. We had a big hole in our kitchen ceiling for a week while the moisture dried. Definitely use extra silicone.

Hey man, just wanted to thank you for your channel. I completely gutted and am remodeling my master bathroom alone with 0 experience in carpentry beforehand. Vast majority of the knowledge I gained to tackle it came from your well-presented videos.
Thanks so much! Glad to hear I could be of some help
Bathroom looks great and thanks for the shout out 😊 Love the full tiled wall and awesome work on the custom vanity. So excited to see the rest of the projects of your home!
Thank you so much and of course! Looking forward to your kitchen Reno!
So awesomeness to see you guys sending love to each other!!! Let's goooooo!!! Blessings to all, Dirty Jersey out!!

maaaan this is so cool to see. Getting some creative insight with this beautiful bathroom. Love to see the torch marks on the mixing valve studs.

Thanks guys, the toilet is fantastic and one of my favourite features of the new place!
Yes, another upload🔥
I’m back!
Welcome back. I love the finished work. If I won the lottery I'd fly you to my province and let you renovate the entire house; I love your work.
I'm excited to see how you renovate the rest of your home.
Thanks so much, I hope you like the rest of it too!
Looks great. I like how you built the window frame in one piece and put it in. I thought I was the only one that did that. Definitely the high quality way of doing it. You can always judge skill level by the little things like that.
Makes it so much easier and long lasting that way!
Looks great Liam! I like the combination of gold and black. We’re glad that you have finally found your home. Looking forward to see more of your renovations.
Salutations to you and your coworker Sebastian. You’re a great team
😊
Thank you Marie-Anne! It’s nice to read your comment. I’ll have some more videos coming out soon 😊
we re-did our ensuite last year and got a lot of inspiration from your channel. Happy to see you back.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the videos!
You're back! Love your content.
Thanks for watching!
Just bought my house and I watch your videos hoping one day I’ll get the courage to DIY Reno vs paying someone. I think I’ll take the leap after my wedding. 😅 good work man love your channel. One of the best out there, straightforward. No production, no gimmicks. Love it
Congrats and thank you! I wish you good luck in the projects to come
Been waiting for this 🔥
Thanks so much!
I was so excited to see a new video. You are a great teacher. I hope to see more soon
Plenty more on the way! Thanks
"They call this one green.". LOL. Great videos, man. You're a credit to the trades and refreshingly conscientious.
Haha thank you I appreciate it!
Always impressed!!! Great work and vanity turned out great. Glad you’re pushing yourself
Thanks so much!
i really liked the way you did the double sink plumbing, never thought of that pipe config before. way better than a double fixture tee.
A clean out woulda been simpler but I wanted to try something new
Im gonna be doing a full gut reno for my in laws bathroom after doing some major reno work in our own place for the first time and your vids have been incredibly informative. Oh and congrats on the new place!
Glad I could help and thank you!
I've been binge rewatching all of your vids and look at that. Just in time!! I bet its so amazing to do renovations on your own house. :)
Thanks Kelly! Yes it was really nice being able to create my own space
Don’t make us wait so long for another video!! We missed you!
Don’t worry there will be regular stuff coming now!
Welcome back, brother!
Thank you!
Yayyyy! I had to check to make sure my post notifications were on. Welcome back and great job.
Thank you and thank you!
Always exciting when your video's show up in my feed. Love your work and the video :)
Thank you thank you!
Really like the way your cabinets turned out.
Thanks so much me too!
I’m so excited!
Thanks!!
Incredible transformation! I do kitchen and bathroom remodels in southern Michigan, love your videos
Thanks! It’s nice to hear from a fellow Reno guy!
Absolutely stunning!! Looking forward to other video of makeovers.
Appreciate that, there are many more to come!
Looks great, Liam! Amazing job as per usual.
Thank you so much!
I was going to say this tile looks a lot like the tile they used on the Golden Key channel recently! Love their work and yours!
Very similar vibes,
Thank you!
Bro, I was afraid you were dead. Radio silence on your social media, glad to have you back with the great videos
Sorry for the scare haha thank you!

Amazing work Liam. Are you planning on filming the rest of the house reno? If so, can't wait to see!
Yes! The kitchen should be a good one
This is absolutely beautiful!
Thanks!
He's Back!!
Yessir!
Beautiful bathroom, thanks for the recommendations as well!
Appreciate that, hope it helps!
Glad to see a bathroom that doesn’t look like a chemistry lab. Great job
Me too lol
Thanks!
I knew there was some resemblance to the golden key designs shower before you even said it! Awesome reno btw only I can dream of one day 🤞
Thanks! Love their stuff
Well done once again! great choices and impeccably executed in every respect, as usual. Interesting way to Y the singk drains.

I MISSED YOUR RENOVATION VIDEOS!!!
Ahhh thank you there’s plenty more coming!
Glad to see a new video. 😊
Thank you!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks!
that toilet looks pretty awesome. wall hung look and functionality, but a conventional design for repair ease.
It’s amazing, I’ve been loving it
Wolkon where have you been? We missed you.
Working on never ending projects but now I have something like 8+ videos that will be coming out shortly
As always, LOVE IT!!❤️❤️
Appreciate the love!
Instead of screwing plywood into the niche and having to patch it, you could cut two spacers that would hold the plywood up. Alternatively, you could use two trigger clamps in spreader mode to hold the plywood up. Beautiful job, btw.
We typically reverse clamps and use that but sometimes it’s just easier to use what’s in the room
It looks amazing. I am so happy for you. My dream to have a house and I wish I could do things you do. All the best.
Thanks!!

It's good to see a new video, sir 💪🏾
Though, why a tub?! 🤷🏾♂️
Thanks! Small house, this is the only main bathroom in the house so it needs a tub
As someone who has 4 x 4 in grouted tiles in their shower my immediate thought when I saw the 2 x 6 tiles going in was that is going to be a b to clean. Eventually I will talk my husband into redoing our bathroom. Its OG to the house (1986) he wants to do a walk in shower but honestly if we are doing it ourselves id rather just shove another tub in there and use large format tiles for the tub surround.
Also want to add that i just went in and measured everything in our master bath.... looks like we will need a custom vanity done as our double sink vanity spans the entire 8'3" wall. oi vei
Looks great my man!
Thank you!
That looks nice and looked like nice work too!
I agree on not mixing the gold and the black, but honestly (my taste) I would have done all black instead of all gold. Like you said, though, eye of the beholder :)
Thank you so much!!
Great video! Will you be sharing other room renovations in the house as well?
Thank you and yes!
Finally a new vid
Thanks for waiting!
9:47, keep the white tape hasple the other way around. That way you do not have to do that thingy with your thumb. Thus then the tape goes over the thread and then down towards the hasple. In the vid you have the tape on top of the thread and the on top of the hasple ( that white round holder). When the tape goes over the thread and then down to the hasple, you make the tension with the hasple and you do not need to use your thumb like that anymore. Like the 8 form or like the S shape.
Thanks!
@WorkinwithWolkon Welkom, regards from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
If you feel like royalty using the new smart toilet, you will be giving it the royal flush after every use.
I see why you wished you had gone with gold in the shower. It would have provided uniformity as well as symmetry, but in the end, it still looks high end and luxurious on a budget.
Nice shout out to Golden Key Design, I have been subscribed to them for a while, and their bathroom renovation was beautifully done as well.
Thank you so much for the kind words,
yeah they do great work!
Amazing renovation. As always if you’re service area expands, please do let me know… We would have you in instantly.
Thank you so much!
Very nice work
Appreciate it!
i was looking forward to your next video
Thanks for that!
Ya
Love the video's! Thanks for posting. If you ever want to do another one, I can be your second pair of hands...HAHAHA
Thank you so much!
Welcome back... but please tell me. What causes those BLACK STAINS on the wall behind the tub?? Looks like it could have caught fire???
Those are from the previous plumber soldering the copper water lines
Nice job !!! ❤😊👌🏾
Appreciate it!
Finally 🤌

@@WorkinwithWolkon thanks for the reply. They're pricy yeah, but I personally wouldn't want a bidet toilet. Everybody their own preference.
Copying this whole bathroom ty
Haha thanks!
Did you recorded any other videos when renovating your home? Great videos BTW 👍
There will be bedroom, office, kitchen, living room, stairs/entry way videos coming soon
I wish you made a walkthrough on the measurements. like how you find where to drill the holes in the drywall, in the sink for the faucets, and how you knew where to cut the tiles between the mirrors to find the electric wires.
I will be doing a more in depth series on how to renovate a bathroom in the near future
@@WorkinwithWolkon you've done lots of those already, it would help me if you could focus specifically on the measurement aspect.
Third comment!!! Haven't clicked a video so fast in my life!
Oh man I appreciate that!
@@WorkinwithWolkon Just finished watching. Love your unique choices and am really excited to see what you did with the rest of the house.
Well done
Thanks Mario
Did you put cement under the tub? Because usally that’s required to make it feel solid and last long
Nope! I had cement ready for that purpose but when I was looking through the tubs sheets it said specifically not to do that. I suppose the idea is the black grid system underneath will fulfill that purpose. So far it’s been great, feels solid but we’ll see how it holds up.
@@WorkinwithWolkon exactly. New tubs have that grid system that is there to stabilize and replace the old school method of using cement
Very nice
Thanks!
Great job. Can you tell me what brand and colour are the grouts (around tub and behind vanity)? Thanks.
Cavern moss by Mapei for shower
Frosty by Laticrete for vanity
@@WorkinwithWolkon were they pre-mixed?
Question: when you cutout the 2X4 & install 2X6 on the vanity wall do you go to other side and reinstall drywall screws?
Of course
What grout with. July in sealer did you use - I would love to skip a step in a bath I am redoing now ?
Did you test for asbestos before doing the demo?
Water moisture will get those fasteners and over time they will rust and tore apart. Might take a few years but will happen. These fastener don’t do anything but just secured the tub to the wall. If they all break your tub unlikely move unless someone push it out.
I just don’t follow that logic though
If water is hitting those fasteners then our waterproofing method has failed and we have bigger issues
Renovating my bathroom right now too. Looks like we chose the same tub. My builder has never used the tub frame that came with the tub, and is contemplating still using a mortar bed with it. What do you think?
Mine feels solid without the mortar but I did make sure the black grid was sitting perfectly flush along the sub floor. I think if I were to do it again I’d choose a more standard tub without the grid system and just use a mortar bed though
@@WorkinwithWolkon Thank you for your reply. My guy is a perfectionist, so I'm not worried about the outcome. He will probably still use the mortar. I'll let you know what he decides.
On a budget apparently means replacing absolutely every single bit of every square inch.
Gotta do it right
It's not good. It's beautiful
Thank you!
I MISSED YOU SO MUCHHH🥹♥️
Ahh thank you!!
Should’ve split the difference with the niche placement so you didn’t have the line of slivers above it. Would’ve looked better halved imo.
I think I agree actually. Had this been a clients home I would have just built a taller niche so that it would be all full tiles
I was told that schluter doesn’t recommend running the drita over the self leveler (not sure why) but was there something you needed to address to make it work?
Yes that’s what the primer U is for
Have you used type B for pex and if so, why do you prefer type A over B?
Pex a is superior in every way
Faster to make connections, easier to make connections, more flexible piping
We used to use pex b because the expansion tool for pex a is costly but if you do enough of this it just makes sense
Hi, can you please tell me the bathroom fan make and model? I believe you said it is Panasonic but didn’t mention the model #. 🙏
Panasonic whisper, maybe the remodel version but I’m not 100%
Any of the whispers work great we’ve used a few different ones
Question, those gang able boxes do you still like to use such small boxes. With new smart switches they are so big and need more room. I have personally gone to 3" deep boxes and it makes wiring so much easier with the extra space. Any reason why you like the smaller ones?

do you have any concerns about the adherence of schulter's stick-on uncoupling membrane?
Nope! As long as your prep everything well and do a good job of pushing it down it’s really hard to peel it up later. The adhesive they use gets stronger over time too
Question!What course do u do to become a general tradesmen like you? U do plumbing, plastering, electric, tiling and etc, its almost 3 yrs course each in the uk
The course of TH-cam and trail and error
@ youre lying?! No such college course done?
Did all that drywall get reattached to the studs that were swapped out?
Is the bar really this low? lol yes

3/4 hole in the centre of the studs don’t require protection plates
I like using purple board instead of green. Anyone else ever try using purple, or even blue?
Was that a P-trap or an S-Trap for the drain?
Always p trap never s trap
Question : why put in a rainhead where the showerhead is supposed to go. Why not just run a line to the ceiling and have the rainhead come from there? Rainheads coming out of the wall always look chintzy to me.
Excellent otherwise.
1. Most kits will include a wall mounted rain head instead of a ceiling mount so it’s just more readily available
2. It’s a lot more work to have to come from the ceiling then from the wall
3. With it coming from the wall it can be easily changed for a regular shower head as not everybody likes rain heads
