Hey y'all! Welcome back to my channel! Over the last few weeks I have been renovating my 1990s bathroom and I've made a lot of progress. From completing demo, installing cement board, and waterproofing....... But today we are doing to 24 hour water test to see if the shower can withstand the water.

Me too! I would have been doing the entire shower over 😢. It saved me so much potential damage. You have a blessed Christmas as well ❤️

Also, the best resource for Schluter is the now archived John bridge tile forum

I doing the same project. Only thing is my sub floor is concrete instead of wood like yours. My question is being that my floor is concrete do I need a shower pan or can I build up the floor to drain well than use backer board and red guard before I tile?

You will still need a shower pan. The shower pan will need to contain a slope to drain properly. You can either purchase a shower pan or build one yourself with a waterproof liner and mortar.

I've built 2 schluter showers with pans but i didnt red guard the walls. How did you overlap with the walls? Are you able to use kerdi band? I would use Kerdi band instead of more redguard. To be clear, i used kerdi on the walls and sealed all seams with kerdi band

Thanks! I do have a kerdi band in the bottom where the cement board and shower pan meets. I just didn’t use it over the entire wall. Gladly, I was able to get it fixed.
