Schlutter shower base

Pre slope is for the moisture inside the pan you pour so it weeps out of the pan. A pan that holds water will cause mold issues. Hence the pan drying out via the weep holes. I dont think any new guys understand this.

Old school? Opd school is hot mop

So no weep drain for these anymore? Curdy systems i dont see weep...

What ultra color was it? Was it the max or F

Nice work! Its stupid to me how expensive those literal foam pans are, though, not to mention the fabric/plastic. Its gotten more expensive for a cheaper to manufacture product. Fuck corporations

I understand the original contractor did things wrong, but customers also need to know grout needs resealing periodically also..

Does this need to be done with both walls?

Man, 13k for a small shower like that? No way. I think that's going way overpriced. I'm getting that bathroom down to studs and back together in less than a week. Material costs are high but how much are you putting on your man hours? $300 an hour?

At the recommended rate-of-use, the applied thickness should be maximum 125 mils = 3.175 millimeters = 1/8". Your finished application of Redgard appeared to be less in areas. So, inconsistent thickness is one issue. Also, your dry pack was inside of an acrylic box, with only the top surface area of the dry pack exposed for evaporation. Using real-world material, i.e., cement board, plywood, etc, moisture evaoprates from both large surfaces of the dry pack, plus the sides. Those materials allow some path for evaporation; not much but some. The dry pack was not completely dry. Period. Then, when you poured water into the box you created a seal above the Redgard, which sandwiched that material between a still-evaoprating dry pack and full-contact water... no place for the evaporation to go other against the Redgard. The interface surface between the Redgard and the not-yet-dry dry pack prevented the Redgard from completely curing/drying.

TLDW?

Cheapskates always lose. Just pay to get the job done RIGHT.

sister me timbers

How do I get in on this I live near by

Buy a fiberglass tile-ready custom shower pan and get on with your life.

Thank you so much for this information. Shopping so extremely relevant for me

Hey Tile Folk. Just wondering why hard water deposits don't clog up those weep holes? Even our toilet bowls stack up with that garbage (northern Cali). Thanks to Tile Coach. Love this channel.

great doctors

He didn’t say “I love being your tile coach!” 😢 Just kidding. We love you TC.

To get fall toward shower pan, do you cut the foam on an angle or just make it up with the thinset?

so you dont use hot mopping very much anymore ...your info is cool to though

Great video, I'd only say one thing about it; EYE PROTECTION ! Wear safety glasses.

😳🤯

24k is sickening for that lil area. The clown who says don’t hate on someone if they can make it how about don’t rob someone cause they don’t know or just cause they have the money. So we don’t go off ball park hours it takes to complete a job added up to get somewhat of a pricing? And I get if someone is a lil higher the others and that fine quality can be better they might be able to design bathroom and drawings but I don’t think time it takes and whatever else is no 24 k for that lil dump. No even with materials cause I can see those subway tiles don’t cost much on top of the other stuff. Don’t see no high end shower trim kit. That looks like off the shelf one. So I don’t see it at all

I’m a handyman and my work is top notch. I don’t think the quality of work has anything to do with the job title and everything to do with integrity, and only willing to deliver the best possible work. I rather make 0 profit in exchange of delivering quality work if it comes down to it. As an example this job you’re discussing was done by a “licensed Contractor”.

Too many seams Water 💧 is unforgiving

Fuck yea I hope that shit comes off that smooth for me tomorrow. Lol

Question for the tile coach: My sister just bought a house of the same era, has the same 2x6 floor boards. They are installed on the entire house foundation which is the same as well, 4x6 girders 4ft on center, on posts sunk into concrete piers. Here is my question: What would one have to do to make this subfloor stable enough for tile floors? I was thinking of placing similar 4x6 girders the other direction and then hanging 2x6 floor joists on 14 or 16 inch centers. ????

I wish my installer had been as professional. Just took up a few floor tiles in bathroom and a ton of mould. They had ‘dot and dabbed’ porcelain (expensive!) floor tiles with about 65% 9pm what looks like ready mixed wall tile adhesive 😢. Plus it’s not even. Same person stuck a mirror on too and it nearly fell on me. In UK we don’t have licences for trades. I think we need to.

Didn't know what he was doing? On crystal meth? Both? Lazy? I think he decided never to buy another bag of thinset. HNonestly, I am guessing that he did know how to tile but was drunk or stoned or pissed off at the owner. He did the absolute bare minimum. Anyone who has ever hung big tile would know that what he did here is a bit of a miracle, getting all that tile up with so little of anything touching the walls. Yes, he was a seasoned tile guy but was somehow impaired or angry or suicidal or jacked up or performing his own little protest against the universe. Strannge indeed. But hey, I just watched tens of thousands of people drive at 80 mph exactly as this guy laid his tile.

A lot of bla bla bla

What did you use to float the wall with? I have similar situation where kerdi was installed and walls are not perfect

Never would do a pebble shower floor lol

Either he laid those tiles 20 min before you walked in…… Or Maybe he used Colgate Toothpaste instead of mortar. 7:47.

They should just honestly stop selling mastic. So many mistakes out there with improper use. I don’t even use mastic for backsplashes lol (my go to is Laticrete Tri-lite or Mapei Pro-lite mortar).

Beautiful broth. Nice job

Best to just hot mop

That’s one place homeowners shouldn’t try and save a dime. Imagine what that all cost and his time then add 20K to that to redo it all. Thats a beautiful car or rock for the wife.

👍

Who puts a screw through waterproofing? Jesus Christ.

Very helpful thank you!

looking to do this myself. was it hard to get rid of all the dust in the yard?

While you were doing that juan has already built 8 houses

But why touch the saw after every cut, isn't that dangerous

Coating the wall all that way inst fo beginners 😅

Absolutely the best instructor I've ever had to follow!!! Keep up the great work in making the industry even better!!

You are a teacher and the best kind to be. A teacher that gets to teach only people that are really interested in what you have to say. No one is forced to be here taking a class they don't think they should be required to take.

I really don’t know why mastic is still made and used. Why not just use thinset……makes more sense imo

Buzz did a great job.

Big up for owning up but why oh why didn’t he do some research when you obviously know you are not a tradesman?
