🚨 Homeowners Beware 🚨
Not all shower installations are created equal.
We’re seeing more and more showers fail because contractors are skipping steps or improperly installing waterproofing systems behind the tile. The problem is — you usually don’t see the damage until it’s too late.
A beautiful tile job means nothing if the shower isn’t properly waterproofed underneath.
Common issues we see:
❌ No waterproof membrane
❌ Improperly sealed corners and seams
❌ Incorrect drain installation
❌ Water leaking behind walls and under floors
❌ Mold, rot, and costly structural damage
A properly built shower should be designed to manage water BEFORE tile is installed — not after problems appear.
Before hiring a contractor, ask: ✔️ What waterproofing system do you use?
✔️ Are you following manufacturer installation guidelines?
✔️ Do you perform flood testing before tile installation?
Don’t trust shortcuts when it comes to protecting your home investment.
Quality waterproofing isn’t optional — it’s essential.
