I just tour out a bathroom today that someone put cement down on OSB board 20 years ago and the only part or the bathroom the floor was rotten was where the cement was I’m not sure why but I came across the same situation about 8 years ago and every since then I put felt under any type of cement or I use a bonding agent that’s moisture resistant. It’s just a tip that I do because of what I’ve seen. Thanks for the video and I always enjoy watching them.

The mix was just a bit thicker than water I used the amount of water required.... My question to you is can I leave the self leveling there and pour the sand mix over it or should I remove it?

Hello Jeff. Thanks for the informative video. My question is what if the floor was concrete and level, do we still have to use sand mix? Or we can just install it as it is. Thanks a lot.
@dad1432
@dad1432 6 месяцев назад
I'm not Jeff, but the short answer is Yes. Every pro I know uses a mortar base. It prevents flexing, even if a very heavy person uses the shower. Remember, flexing eventually leads to cracks and leaks. It's minimal expense and reasonably easy.

Hi Jeff, First of all, I want to say thanks so much for your uploads! I am DIY most of my basement right now here in Toronto and all these videos have given me lotsa tricks! In shopping for a shower base, what should I be looking for? User reviews? Material composition? The brand "Dreamline" from Home Depot seem to get excellent reviews. Any brands I should look for (or avoid) or you recommend? Thanks!

@vanessap8717
@vanessap8717 2 года назад
Many professionals say the mortar should be as dry as can be to prevent shrinking so it doesn’t pull away from the bottom of the pan, because then there’s no point as it’s not supporting the pan.

I was thinking the same. Like maybe pizza dough or peanut butter consistency. However, this is a sand mix, not mortar so I think his yogurt consistency will be good.

Jeff your the best! Hey setting a 60x30 Dreamline pan 2nd floor on plywood floor. Apparently setting sand mix required sloped 1” around to 3/8” @ drain on right side. Questions- can I somehow retrofit a linear drain hypothetically 24”-26 wide. Thinking would need cut into the acrylic pan though. Would be cool if possible but would void pans warranty surely. On that note, they claim not being able tile directly onto pan or lbuild wall or bench on the curb. I wanted to do a pony wall up bout 42” in bout 30” from valve wall. Would do glass above joining 30” door hinged on end wall plus help block looking at toilet while showering. Perhaps a 2x6 wall half built to subfloor half laying on curb aiding distributing weight. Suppose a guy could lay it on metal bracket nailed to subfloor reaching over curb then silicone the joint. Both sides be tiled continuing tile behind toilet and vanity. How would you go about adding a bench or two in back corners. Should a corbel be used? Then would be integrating large mosaic niche in center of back wall. Or construct 30” x? Or a Bench attached to end wall though glass door be attached to curb. Suppose easy way be utilizing removable teak chair/bench .. lastly ,so much for the couple questions:) - adding soffit above shower integrating a light/fan or whatever cool gadgets you can think of Thanks Jeff 😊

Love your videos! We purchased a split level a while back and converted it into basement apartment and upstairs main level. We remodeled the basement, but it was a quick, mostly cosmetic make over everywhere, only had to convert existing wet bar into a full kitchen... That was my first ever backsplash tile job and I think it looks great for first time 😅😉 Thank you! Now we want to tackle on the upstairs (cuz I am sick of the 90's look we have) and one of the projects I want to do is expanding master bath into the master room and closet in order to add the laundry in there (plenty of space to eat in)... These videos give me much needed inspiration and courage to get working on my remodel 😁👌 THANK YOU!

Really looking forward to this series. I’m currently trying to work my way through redoing my basement bathroom. I have been dreading the shower portion a bit. I have piping already from the ground to use. I just hope there is a way to get a pan that fits the hole?? Not sure if that’s a thing, I haven’t done much shopping around yet, I know they have pre-cut holes in some you can buy but not sure if it will fit what I need yet. May do some measurements tonight… I have to redo the water piping first though so not rushing.

I needed this 4 months ago. I am almost done renovating my bathroom from a weird layout with 2 separate vanities, 60’s tile shower, and toilet to a 4 piece with a Duravit shower pan and free standing tub. Hired plumbers to do the rough in’s and had them do install on tub and shower because I didn’t know anything about installing them. Turns out they knew even less. Guess they were only qualified for leaks and clogs. I knew enough (and could read install sheet) that mentioned a mortar bed under the pan but didn’t give any details. I was hoping plumbers would know more. They did bare minimum of mortar underneath but at least the duravit pan is heavy, maybe 60-80 lbs and mostly self supporting. The mortar I hope is mostly to keep it from moving so I hope they put enough so I’m not dealing with a mess in 5 years.

So you’re putting the shower pan up against a 2 x 4 wall construction without any sheet rock? And I also have noticed that you didn’t put any kind of barrier on the floor before you try out that stuff out? Other videos had mentioned how the wood floor with suck up the water out of that thin set.
@huma1000
@huma1000 Месяц назад
The sheetrock gets put on afterwards. If you have sheetrock on already due to a reno, you should cut the bottom out a little so that the pan screws directly to the studs. Most pans are designed to have sheetrock above them, but not behind them if that makes sense. Then your poly sheeting walls have the proper drip lines into the pan. As for the thinset onto wood. I'm not sure, but I wonder if that's why he used the sand product and not true thinset

If you are installing drainline to shower after can you measure your down drainline and go ahead and install it to drain before you set pan? That way you can just glue in pea trap and connect to main drain line! So you do not have to fight with pipe connection after installation! This will only work with new construction and if you have room! Or will this not work or cause a problem?

Wait, I just watched another video where you used Speedset fortified thinset mortar to install a shower pan. Now I’m not sure which to use. 🤷🏼‍♂️

"instead of using thinset, like you would for cement" are you suggesting that you can't use thinset in this application or simply that it just isn't ideal. I fully understand why this sandmix is better, just wondering why thinset would/wouldnt work

Alright, I took your advice setting the tripwire claymore. It worked great for keeping the shower pan level, but now I'm on the run for murder.

Hello, does the hardiebacker rest slightly above and inside the shower pan or does the hardiebacker rest behind the shower pan lip that is screwed into the studs?

Isn't the flat metal bracket for helping out with tightening the drain, why didn't you use it?

Hi, watch all of your videos & have been doing a similar line of work under someone for several years. Thinking of going on my own and was wondering what your thoughts were on a property maintenance course, which gives a qualification and bit of experience in carpentry, plumbing, plastering, tiling ect.. Is it worth the price tag of like 2000 for such a course?

Shower bases are great, but aligning/reworking the p trap plumbing is not easy for typical DIYer.

Great video! Can you explain why you didn't put felt paper under the cement?

Does the Sandmix anchor the shower pan or just for leveling purpose? Thanks

I have been watching a lot of your videos lately and been going back to the older videos because I am going to frame out and completely make a bathroom in an unused space. My question is do you have a video on installing a linear drain shower system?

Do you think it’s a good idea to tile a bathroom with porcelain tile, from ceiling to floor all the away around? I live in a row home & im concerned about the amount of weight the joist/walls can hold…

Great videos. Super helpful! Youve helped in a pinch more than once. What is the sand mix called when buying at home depot?

Where do you out the drywall if you use direct to stud shower walls? Still the same place as the glue on shower wall?
