Flip or investment properties are a way for investors to make income by buying a run down house at a low price then installing upgrades and re-selling at a higher price. The problem with flip houses is that they are often done by low paid, unqualified workers because the investor is only concerned about how much money they can save. These workers often cut corners, which can lead to not only cosmetic problems but catastrophic water damage as well. This homeowner was stuck replacing the entire shower in this home that they just bought.

Shower door stores sell U channel trims. Those just needs to be installed on sides where wall plane transition to glass panel to cover uneven edge when you position glass panels on level curb. U channel are available in different thickness and can save up to an inch out of plumb tolerances. Also, modern U channels do not have that quarter round profiles of 90s so they look pretty slick with glass. The look and setup still stays frameless.

This shower didn't fail because he mixed a water in and water out system with a topical membrane. It failed because he did everything wrong.....Window flashing and liquid membrane over wood and a leaky old hot mop 🤦. If you install a pan liner correctly and waterproof the top of the mortar bed with liquid waterproofing, it won't fail even if you mix the 2 systems..... Moisture sandwich is a theory and not a fact. I would love to see a video where a Starrtile shower style fails.

They had a very sloppy troweling technique too, every tile you lifted I could see uncollapsed trowel lines, meaning they likely should have used 1/2" trowel and back butter the tiles, and they did not mash the tiles deep enough into the mortar to make the trowel line scollpase. I also saw one of the wall tiles you removed, there were criss crossing trowel lines, another big no-no. All the trowel lines under a tile should be in the same direction so air can escape and trowel lines will collapse down.

Also glad you addressed the elephant in the room of lots of contractors using redgard wrong, it's important that you use the product properly and essential that you use the proper style drain with weep holes and that it's a multi piece design, seen so many vids of people using redgard with single piece drains and drives me crazy, they're basically trapping the water with nowhere for it to ever go...

can u explain the issue so beginners like me understand the mistake? is the problem that installers redgard the entire cement floor before laying the small tiles and that they should not redguard the floor?

@@BillSW Isaacs point on not using waterproofing liquid/or not membrane on panliner/hotmop showers bed is that those systems imply water absorbing into mortar bed to weep into drain over panliner surface that is why preslope that panliner sits on is a must. Sealing such mortar bed with membrane creates water trap as membrane does not let water trapped in mortar evaporate so whole mortar bed converts into moisture accumulator which will lead to nothing good in long term perspective. Not to mention that panliner based showers are quite thick and heavy which may not be best idea for non ground floor installs.

Hey, been watching your channel for a while now. What do you recommend for the Shower panels, if not drilling into the curb/floor? I wouldn't trust just silicone to hold the panels for 10+ years. I install shower Enclosures, and always drill into the tile/curb, adding silicone around/ in the anchor hole. No problems yet for me, but I can see it being a problem, if it is not properly sealed. Any other recommendations?

Thats fine and dandy, but the real problem could be from wicking, capillary action. Question is, will the thinset suck up enough water to make it to where the screw holes are? I think putting silicone down the screw hole would work good. But wish there was an easier way to secure the door without drilling through the water proofing membrane.

@TileCoach - Absolutely nothing wrong with anchoring long screws through water-proofing membranes. They *need* to be anchored deep into wood/concrete structure below. The fix is simple: clean the hole out after drilling it and then fill it with silicone before you screw anything down. It will completely fill the gaps and gush out. Clean the excess. And Voila.

After 25 years in construction, I've seen and demo'd some crazy stuff. My ''favorite'' was a 30 year old house that had a complete reno at the 20 year mark. House is now worth about 3 mil. Owner saw a tiny stain on a first floor ceiling below the steam shower. What we found left us in awe. Multiple floor joist rotten, a 4 ply engineered beam with 25% rot over a six foot section, three feet on the bottom of multiple studs gone from rot. That beam picked up the second floor joist AND an exterior wall and roof load! The cause? When the tiler set the EPDM liner, they proceeded to use their POINTED trowel to work in the dry pack base. Around the perimeter of the liner were ten triangular shaped slits in the rubber! Probably cost the owner $20k in repairs.

It’s not about the type of waterproofing over the mortar, it’s about the overall system being used. In a sealed system using a bonding flange drain and no pvc liner you would waterproof everything right up to the drain flange. When you don’t want to waterproof a mortar pan is when you’re using an old school pvc liner system with a pre slope and clamping ring drain. That system must be able to allow water into the mortar bed. Hope that helps!

No holes, no leaks, no brackets to clean around. Only good.

I also just moved into a new house and they had to gut the entire shower because someone slit the shower pan. When they took apart the tile, I noticed everything was “cookied” like you mention in the video. One glob on each tile but not properly spread. The tile guy I hired said it was dangerous because moisture can get behind that and eventually cause tile to fall. Would you agree? I have two other showers that they did where I presume it was the same method and I don’t want them to be unsafe.

red guard, Starr tile cough cough. I got out of tile and got into glass. There are several designs that avoid horizontal penetrations, it's not something we like doing. but for a frameless door there isn't much choice. I sink them all the way, but I make sure to clean out the hole as good as possible and add sealant. The hole is completely covered by the glass and silicone and even if that were the fail the plug fits really tight and heats up a little when you drive the screw so sorta acts as a seal also.

I don't install glass doors or panels, but I understand sometimes it's hard or near impossible for them to install big heavy glass without anchoring the brackets to the curb. What I've seen them do is glue the brackets with some sort of crazy strong epoxy or something similar. If they absolutely have to drill, they fill the holes with that epoxy and screw the brackets while It's still wet.

Hey I love your videos and insight. I did want to say one thing. I have been doing shower enclosures (3/8 and 3/16 glass sizes) for years. The reason the shower guy drilled into the curb like that is because there is no other way to anchor the clips down to the curb. What they are supposed to do when they fill the hole is use mold resistant silicone in order to keep the water from protruding below the shower pan and possibly leaking past that. Plus you silicone around the clips again after everything is mounted and set. Also if the curb is pitched properly it shouldn't have standing water on it anyway. You can also use channel and wet set it on the curb which will keep the glass stable with clip assistance on the wall to keep it stable throughout.

In my opinion screw holes are rarely if ever an issue, all is needed to squeeze some sealant into drilled hole and use stainless screws, also generous squeeze of sealant under glass holder bracket as wont hurt. Those simple protective treatments cost nothing for glass installers, but they never do that, as they don't care of longevity of your shower. Their task to install glass and not scratch or break tile work and get out immediately to new job.

I think it's enough to last 20-30 years. But even then, if you're a home owner that understands proper maintenance, youll be re-caulking things in 5-10 years. I don't see a big issue with drilling through the curb, but that's only if you're using a granite top. If it's tile i would not be as confident.

In my defense, as a glass shower installer we do add silicone to any of the holes in the bottom so water doesn't go in

Bro the glass guy doesn't make the walls square. He cuts the glass to fit the shower whatever shape it is. This shower was out of square so the glass was too.

flip house is going to use a cheap $1500 kit glass enclosure, not something custom cut. It's 'ea$ier' to just tear it out and install a new kit that you sell to the homeowner for $3k - 4k; man's got to make a living and a flip home buyer wont know the difference.

Poke a hole their goes the waterproof. There are many shower door companies in rocky mountain west that don't penetrate to anchor. I have worked for only a few house flippers, the reason being is I won't drop my price to get anyone's work. Cost what it cost. What finish people do is art. I am about to retire, I figured out a long time ago I don't want to be known as the cheapest guy they could find. I am known as the company that keeps the client informed from start to finish and who's price was well worth the cost. By the way good Mr. Ostrom.

"Homeowner wants to see where the leak is". Pick any spot - you've got it! What's the difference, anyway, in this case? Buying a house is a very rough thing. Are there inspection companies that can detect problems like this before buying?
