Hey guys, I guess I didn’t specifically mention this but the Kerdi shower pan we installed has slope built into it. I’ve had quite a few comments wondering about this
We’ll done! Super slick build. Love your attention to detail. You’re the kind of installer everyone hopes they’re hiring when the hire guys for jobs like this! I’ve had my eye on curbless scheulter showers for a little while now and am definitely looking to incorporate it on my next project!
Hi ask for some comments how you could improve your job. You spend a lot of time talking about waterproofing the outside the shower floor. It would be nice if you waterproof 3 inches the walls. And transition to different room from the floor shouldn't you use a marble saddle? To everyone new house, I go if I see marble saddle. I know it's bathroom or waterroom.. Besides that great job.
You are awesomesauce !! All of your work always come out clean, symmetrical, and well-done .👍🏽 Great stuff we can all learn from in these videos . Thanks a bunch !
I’ve been a tile setter for 32 years, so many steps skipped and high density foam with basically a caulk joint for waterproofing…holy clowns. I feel bad if anyone replicates this process
@@ryangiancola6528 Wow! 32 years that’s amazing ! You definitely know your stuff sir. Glad to hear the tough things about the work that is not seen in the video.
@@ryangiancola6528 Why did you say "basically a caulk joint for waterproofing..."? He applied the whole schluter system from what my eyes could tell, including sealing the connection from the shower pan area to the rest of the floor. He applied caulking on top of the schluter under the bathroom floor tile to stop any water traveling under the tiles towards the outer walls... which presumably he didn't even need to worry about. I'd appreciate you breaking down what you are referring to with regard to the "high density foam" and caulk joint, to understand what your concerns are, so i don't repeat them myself...
Very nice work. One note that your mosaic tiles are very close if not smaller than the minimum size for a kerdi foam shower pan. A big enough person stepping on these little hexagons can deform the foam below!
Dude! This has been one of the best tutorials videos I have ever seen! Seriously well done!! You’ve gained a real one 💪 later in the future I will be doing something similar
Wow, great job in regard to both the video presentation, as well as the job itself. I am planning to update the master bath in my house, and I learned a LOT by watching this.
excellent video. I would want the towel warmer in front of the shower door. I agree with other questions about the vent on the floor - not sure if it has to go there, but it looks like water could get in. Thank you for the video.
This is very good work. VERY helpful for instillation of a curb-less shower! If you need a curb-less shower for a homeowner with any mobility issues (hence the curb-less shower) it will be more useful to install a wider opening to accommodate any equipment that may be necessary.. JUST A THOUGT for the homeowner going forward not a criticism. Thanks for posting.
Another Great video! One thing I've yet to be seen explained well in any bathroom remodel video, is the slope to the drain in the shower pan. How do you create the proper grade to the drain?
I agree. I see nothing to provide slope to the drain. Are we to assume the 1 1/8 shower pan has a slope correctly configured for this drain position? This was not mentioned in the video. If someone doesn't know this detail they could assume its a flat piece of foam and not one with slope built in for this drain position.
Schluter pans have the slope installed so you don't have to worry about it. They're a bit more expensive but they make the job much easier for the average installer
"no more silicone"... It's outdated, period. 41 year total residential remodeler here, an incredible amount of experience with several types of applications. It loses it's seal in a matter of months & the proof is in the way it pulls away after it has set up. Clear urethane is the answer. The soap & water finishing technique works just as well too. Everclear clear urethane. Quad clear urethane. (My favorite & most experience with) Btw, I was using 1 part colored urethane sealants, in a tube, in the mid 80s for commercial roof flashing applications & was blown away by those products back then. When clear products hit the shelves about 15 years ago, they've been in my bathroom & kitchen remodels ever since! Trust me, you won't look back!
Great job editing this video and nice work on the bathroom. I’m working on pre-planning two bathrooms with Schluter products and this gave me some good tips to use with mine. Now to figure out whether to use a standard drain or linear. Keep up the good work.
Hey would love to see a video on how you price and bid these type of jobs. Currently on last few jobs I have seriously under bid my self. A video understanding how to properly bid would really help grow the business and possibly hire on other employees.
Amazing work I’ve already watched a few of your videos today. Question. Why not kerdi band the perimeter where the floor meets the wall like in the shower?
Very nice! I noticed that a glass panel is secured at the floor with a bracket. Are you concerned about fasteners puncturing your diligent waterproofing at this very wet location?
What a nice tutorial! Question, how was the glass walls/doors installed? Did you leave a gap on the floor for them? Or were floor mounts just drilled straight down through the tile? Curious. Thanks!
I didn't realize just how nice this actually is being able to freely move the glass and have that seamless transition is actually quite nice. The lines are so clean. Time to get that done for my bathrooms :D
Love the job. Not a fan of a glass corner though; I would build a 6-12" long wall running in both directions from the corner and tile it as per the shower walls. Just my personal preference visually. Also, you said that the shower pan is 1 1/8" thick and, I'm assuming, has at least 1/4" per foot slope. The shower looks about 3ft. long so that would mean that the thickness of the pan is only 3/8" around the drain. Is that thick enough given that the pan is rigid foam?
Great video, can i ask you how the pitch of water goes to the center drain of the floor is compeletly flushed ? I had house that was flushed and with those plastic clips on the bottom of the glass door, water would always get pushed out and that plastic rubbing on the grout just removes it faster that will create that leakage
Why did you put Sheetrock behind the Schluter? Seems like if any moisture got between the Schluter would eventually result in mold growing. Our Showers, were done with WEDI Backer, and they were directly attached to the studs.
Dude, if you are on the same code as most of us, Code does not allow plywood subfloor where you are only spanning one joist. We always switch to solid lumber...usually 2x's. There is a very good reason for this. Over a period of time any high traffic area will get spongy.
I really like the tile combination in the shower. Could you share the information about the manufacturer and color of the shower wall and shower floor in this video? Thanks so much
Very nice work.. it came out beautiful. Since you heated the floor, aren’t you concerned about using peel n stick ditra on floor against the one set in thinset? I’ve seen tiles raised up without proper adhesion of ditra so I never used it on floors but love shulter on walls😊
I’d love to see your take on envelope cut, specifically the tools you use, I get the concept and layout methods, but see people saying they use grinders and dress edges etc, but thinking I bite the bullet and rent a big bridge saw. Don’t see much details on these aspects, but assume I would need a 1/16” kerf to get everything fitting up right after templating. Also the 12x24 tile comes in 24x48, but the rougher exterior version only comes in 12x24. The larger ones would be the same as the wall 0.42 so minimum friction.any recommendation which way I should go? I believe you would cover the details better than most who mostly cover just how to lay it out which to me is the simple part, implementation is the part I would like to understand better.
Love these curbless showers. How do the shower guys install their mounts? I see there's a chrome mount on the floor. Is that screwed in? And if so, how do you re-seal that area to prevent water entry? Thank you!
Wish you could do a video on a concrete slab renovation, but it doesn't appear very common in your area. I would love to attempt a DIY bathroom remodel, but I do not have the luxury of having a subfloor. All the houses where I'm located are built on cement slab, so that limits my options to purely cosmetic changes.
TH-cam has quite a few of videos on concrete slab bath remodels (The Studpack channel has one with curbless too). The overall process is the same, but you instead have to jack hammer concrete out if you are doing curbless or re-routing drains. Curbless on a concrete slab is also usually done with a mortar bed instead of a foam pan since the mortar can be bonded to the slab with a slurry coat of cement bonder. The two big issues with DIYing it is if you have post-tension cables in your slab and dealing with the enormous amounts of concrete dust.
A concrete slab could be chipped out to the required depth in some circumstances. However, if you have a post tension slab, you really can't drill, cut or chip away at it unless you have an engineer plan it. Mine was built with a lower slab for all the shower stalls from the outset.
Great work really enjoyed your video. Just wondering what did you use for the shower walls and that light and mirror? What is it? Where did you get it? Thank you so so much.
Yooooooo Liam!! Firstly CONGRATS on breaking 100K subs!! If anyone elase reads this commnet let's get as many of us as we can to congratulate Liam!! Its NO small feat Bud!!

I’m very sorry that happened to you. Sounds like they either didn’t know how to do it or couldn’t be bothered to do the extra work. I personally love wet rooms
@@WorkinwithWolkon On one hand, having the toilet and shower in the same, space that's closed off by a single door, it would have been fun having the entire space as a wet room with absolutely no physical separation between the shower and toilet to contain the water. But on the other hand, as pointed out by the GC, he would have to create or find a way to drain the water to the drain, and his argument was that it would have "raised" the floor.

@@Daniel-wd4jg That is not true. I had my shower using the Schluter system and was done by tile guy that knew what he was doing. I think that the GC simply didn't want to do what I wanted.
@@trevorgreene5059 Glad it worked out for you. I took a Schluter sponsored training in Reno and got certified. A real bonus with the knowledge and factory certified background
Thank you for a detailed break down on the curbless shower. Do you mind covering how you build niches without schluter trims. Is there a way to miter the edge of niches without using bullnose tiles? Would you mind also showing a tutorial on how to create a wall to wall shelf in the walk in shower as opposed to a niche. Are there any floating vanities or toilets in the future renovations? Thank you so much!
Dear WwW, If i'm correct in usa majority of the walls are made of wood and drywall. Could you please make a video about how you guys install 'hanging' toilets (mounted directly on the wall) . thx
Is there a video showing how they installed the glass door/wall? I am going to be doing similar and am worried about keeping the door/wall base water tight.
Great installation tutorial! The one thing that confuses me is how operation of the shower actually functions. Would have been nice to see the water being turned on to give an idea of how typical operation and usage works. For example, is it frequent for water to be on the rest of the bathroom floor after operation? I know this is less of a construction aspect but I'm trying to suss out what the advantages/disadvantages of this kind of installation are.
Thanks for the video. Question, what did you do to get around the areas where there is the cross-x joist supports? I didn't see you touch on that aspect. Thank you.
I have a question: You mention the floor is sloped, I assume towards the drain (😜) but I don't see that step laid out in your video. Can you specify? I was in one of these showers recently and the floor was NOT sloped, and it was strange to be standing in water even after the shower ended. I would think it should still be sloped. Please advise & thank you!
Fantastic. Can you suggest what to do if shower and bathroom tiles are different thickness. Say, 1/4” Shower then 5/8” bathroom. Is it okay for shower pan to be 3/8” above surrounding area?
How can you drop the subfloor if your floor joist are running in the opposite directions? My shower (I joists) run perpendicular to the length of the shower. Thanks,
What abour flooding? The curb would prevent some sewage or water from getting into the rest of rjr bathroom. This is mostly design over function/longevity
Really Appreciate your work, and attention to detail. This was a well timed video as I’m putting plans together for a renovation with a curbless shower. I have a question about drain pipe diameter. Would it be wise to go larger than a normal curbed shower? If we build with two heads in ours I’m just trying to prevent water build up from the volume. Any thoughts? Thanks!
After you grouted the shower mosaic I noticed you didn't wipe off the excess which makes the mosaic look very hazy even after your sealed with the gloss, was this intentional?
Hey guys, I guess I didn’t specifically mention this but the Kerdi shower pan we installed has slope built into it. I’ve had quite a few comments wondering about this
Man! One of the best tutorial videos I've ever seen is this one! Very nicely done. Many thanks

That turned out amazing. That schluter stuff is awesome but it’s so time consuming.

Do you have to use small piece tiles for the floor? Can you use big field tiles instead? Or will that not work because of the slope?

thx
Since grout is porous would you recommend using epoxy grout for the shower floor instead?
Do you order the glass closure ahead of the time or after you have completed the tiling?
is the kerdi foam board pre sloped?
Bro I was working with Jamie today on an AC install. I remember working with you years ago. I’m from cool check. Cool channel bud, good luck!
Lmao that’s awesome, hope all is well!
Thank you!
Do you let the ditra set for a day before continuing waterproofing of wall edges / seams?
Do you ever have a problem with the floor membrane separating from the plywood? I’ve seen it before a few times. I’ve never personally used it.
What kind of floor tile is that, ceramic, porceline? I like the finish
Is there a video showing how they installed the glass door/wall? I am going to be doing similar and am worried about keeping the door/wall base water tight.
Did all that glossy sealer make the tiles slippery?

The “waterproofing” is a joke. I see a year before stains appear downstairs. Imagine plugging the drain and attempting a 24h water hold test.
Must the curbless shower area be recessed as long as there is enough slope for water drainage with the rest of the floor and tiling?
I really like that mirror. Second one I've seen in your videos. What is this called please?
How does the shower drain? Do you have any pooling water on the sides front or back?
Really Appreciate your work, and attention to detail. This was a well timed video as I’m putting plans together for a renovation with a curbless shower. I have a question about drain pipe diameter. Would it be wise to go larger than a normal curbed shower? If we build with two heads in ours I’m just trying to prevent water build up from the volume. Any thoughts?
Thanks!
100mm will be enough
How come no fan in the enclosed shower? The drywall will wilt??
After you grouted the shower mosaic I noticed you didn't wipe off the excess which makes the mosaic look very hazy even after your sealed with the gloss, was this intentional?
The excess was wiped off just not shown on camera. I think it looks quite popping in the final shots after the sealing🤷🏼♂️
Which part described the sloping for water to run to drain?
Great video. How much does a shower door like that cost with installation, roughly?
Beautiful and quality job! What's the retail price on this job?
Question, without a sloping floor how does the water drain from the corners
I have the same question
The kerdi pan is sloped
