In this video, I pour a custom shower pan for my master bath remodel. I cover adapting the drain from copper to PVC pipe, installing the shower pan liner, pouring and sloping the mortar bed, and waterproofing with RedGard, following the methods of Bob Doyle of StarrTile ( / starrtile .
☕️☕️☕️ If you liked this video, say thanks with a cup of coffee 👉🏻 ko-fi.com/handydadtv ☕️☕️☕️
Over the Winter of 2018, I gutted my tiny master bathroom, moved a wall to double the useable space, and completely rebuilt it from the ground up with high-end finishes like Carrara marble and a smart shower.

@GriftinGuruhunter 4 года назад

Hats off to you my man! On your next endeavor, consider installing schluters troba mat underneath the mud bed and Don't red gaurd on the mud bed. This way when water inevitable breach's your tile and grout the mud will wick moisture to the troba mat and send any water on its way to the weep holes of the drain . Red Gaurd is an amazing liquid membrane and thats exactly why it should only be applied on walls and ceilings. That said, ask yourself, where is the water going to go when it breachs your tile and grout when theres a liquid membrane directly underneath them?. The answer is in your Thin Set. Remember, the flange of your drain is positioned at the height of your tile which is above the mud base covered in red gaurd. Any trapped water, over time will wreak havoc on the bonding thin set as it relates to the bonding of the tile to the red gaurd. Otherwise, Rock On my fellow Countrymen!!!!!! Your Kicking It!!!

@taxicamel Год назад

Exactly. It is one thing to install a system properly ....it becomes another thing when "alleged improvements" are done during an installation without thinking of the possible consequences IF/WHEN a failure occurs somewhere. Unfortunately there are a lot of people on this planet who really do think they can do something better ....and they simply can't resist telling the rest of the world. That's the downside of many RU-vid posters. .

I love your video! Thanks for posting. Quick question, how far off the ground did you hang your cement board? Does it touch the deck mud? Also, how did you fasten it to the studs on the bottom without having to screw through the liner? Thanks again!

@handydadtv 3 года назад

The backer board doesn’t need to be far off the mortar; it just can’t be touching otherwise water will wick up into it and tiles will come loose. You can screw through the liner, just not below the level of the curb. That way, water would overflow the curb before reaching those screws. But if water overflows the curb, you’ve got bigger issues.

@SH-rm4gw 3 года назад

You can view startiles info video. Lol. He gives a demo in his bedroom using a foam boar to simulate the shower floor, dry thin set powder to simulate pre slope and a garbage bag to simulate the shower liner. Lol. Look around his bedroom. Full of buckets , maybe old paint, general construction materials and garbage. If that sounds like someone you think you can learn from , good luck to yah. Lol

Your Panliner is not sloped to the drain. You have to preslope your liner too, not just the tile. I know that Bob is against the presloping the liner, since I was arguing with him a few times, but sometimes you have to check with more experts.

@elcoyotecojodeldesierto2300 3 года назад

It's a code you have to preslope the shower floor before setting the liner.

@StarrTile 2 года назад

@George And what exactly makes an expert? In my mind 23 years and not one failure pretty much makes me one, but if you're talking about book soldiers then you're right, I'm not an expert, I actually think for myself 💪 I will say this, after Chris called me and I consulted with him I gave him every possible answer whether I agree with it or not, I told him about pre-slope and told him why I didn't believe in it and he had a choice to do it and decided not to, so your assumption that he followed my way to the letter because he didn't know any better is incorrect.

What is it with people posting incorrect ways to do shower liners?

@kingkingking8583 4 года назад

I think pre slope is a waste of motar i would like to see two people who pre slope and dont pre slope explain it and see who makes the most sense.you have liner down then you redguard the final work of motar then comes thinset someone tell me how much water is going to pass through all that STUFF.

@etile540 3 года назад

@@kingkingking8583 damn, man, think !!!!!! once that water gets to the unsloped liner it will sit there and grow funk and get so frigging nasty. I have had customers call me that their whole house smells like mold when you come in thew front door. And the source is the shower floor. Don't tell me to explain what the manufacturer and the codes require. Just learn proper techniques and do it.

No, it’s a liquid waterproofing membrane called Redgard.

@littleche76 5 лет назад

I wouldn't recommend redguard all on the shower pan. Just put redguard around edge only couple inch. If u cover it everywhere on the floor. U know by the time water goes underneath and won't breath and mold will grow will start smelling. U already have membrane underneath. That's enough for waterproofing. Just saying

I’ve watched a few Starr Tile videos. His videos could be much more succinct if he wasn’t such a talkative guy. Other than that, I have picked up some tops from him. I disagree with his stance on having no pre pitch. As a pilot, I strongly believe in redundancy and secondary, fail safe measures. Maybe it’s just me. It is pretty cool he provides one on one coaching/tech support to his subscribers. More RU-vid content creators should do that!

@kentdelahay2336 Pre- slopes are irrelevant with a sealed system. If you are still doing a pre-slope or think one is necessary with this type of system then you are way way behind the times and have no business making comments

@marks9949 4 года назад

You were close to getting it right...except you did a lot wrong. If water EVER does penetrate through to your liner, then it’s going to sit there, get stagnant, and rot everything out because you didn’t slope the liner itself towards the drain. On top of that, you redguarded the concrete bed. Water will ALWAYS penetrate tile and grout but now it’s going to get stuck in between your tile and that redguard. You have two moisture sandwiches. Jeez

@StarrTile 4 года назад

The water is going to get stuck Bahahahahaha😂😂😂😂😂😂 Man I guess it's true Common Sense isn't common

@pandapanda8354 4 года назад

Mark S I thought this same thing! But I dug into his method bc I was like you- I was going “wtf is going on here???”. What I read up on in our code book is ANSI approves RedGard alone as a pan liner! No fooling. If it’s spread at 38mils (dry) then it’s an approved pan liner. They have a diagram of a cross section that explained it all. The water always penetrates the grout like you said, but the redgard is on a slope so it allows that water to get to that drain hole. The water doesn’t get stuck unless the screed wasn’t smooth over the slope. The secondary barrier he used below the slope would be redundant IF his redgard was 38 mils and no pinholes. So based on ANSI, seems like he’s on code with respect to redgard as his pan liner if he’s at approved mil thickness. He’s basically done a redundant liner then pre slope then redgard as pan liner then mortar as slope then tile then grout. After I read up on it, I understood what was going on. I wouldn’t have known this was code, but I suppose the redgard/aqua defense people probably pushed for their liquids to be approved. 🤷‍♂️
