We Took out Tub and Made HUGE WALK IN SHOWER --- Heated Tile Floors, Quartz Bench, and Linear Drain

[@jamesabbe3141]

Work of true professionals. I’ve been watching your channel for some time, and have learned some valuable tips and information. We are currently building our home, I’m a one man band so to speak. Approximately 90% of the work has been done by myself. It won’t be long before we are ready to build our walk in shower. It will be curb less, size 42x72 with bench , niche, rain head shower and wand. Might call on you for some tips and questions along the way. Beautiful shower you guys just completed. Absolutely top of the line quality. Thanks for the videos.. James

[@cloudydays1792]

Isaac this is beautiful shower. I just started to do shower and bath floor tile. Your videos have taught me everything I needed to know about tile work in and around showers. I started with my own and incorporated it into my business although I have a really hard time with actually pricing my work because of so many different tile variations. Also on little learning curve as just starting out time work. I do like that I always make sure my customer knows I take little longer than most contractors as do all the work myself. Would like to eventually set up a mobile showroom for customers and the other reason is to keep down my overhead. Anyways I am one of those that says if you get up in morning in anticipation of learning something new everyday you will never be disappointed. Thanks again and keep them coming.

[@doubledarefan]

Once again, I missed out on seeing the tiles going down, the whole reason I subbed to this channel; watching showers being built from the ground up.

Dude that is absolutely stunning...! What a statement piece. You must have so much job satisfaction after work like this. Certainly something to aspire to!

[@ivandred3655]

You were the channel that inspired me to do a custom poured stand up shower. I like how you tell people how to do it, what to watch for, etc. thanks

[@scottyseibert2623]

Totally awesome! It takes a lot of construction knowledge, hands-on experience and craftsmanship to design/build a bathroom of that caliber. You really are an engineer when you get to that level of design. Not only does it have to work but there are so many nuances to consider. When you only have a limited amount of space to install so many fixtures and when you are dealing with expensive finishes that have to be installed by well-paid tradesman, you want to get it right the first time! You really are an artist! Pride in workmanship is #1!

[@stevenkasower8705]

Isaac, thank you for your excellent video tutorials. I want urge you to look in detail at washlet toilets and toilet seats. I ran in to my first experience with one staying in a hotel in Waikiki for a conference. It shocked me. At the end of that trip I was convinced that I would not live without one. Back in Sacramento, Costco had a sale and I installed it in one of my bathrooms. It has become the most popular bathroom in the family (I have four and am finishing tiling a fifth). I am so sold on these contraptions that I retrofitted plumbing in my latest bathroom where the toilet is a high tank model (the house is an 1899 Victorian in Midtown Sac.) The more people who use these the more converts we are going to get. It is inevitable. They are that good.

Did you do anything special to the existing windows now that they're in the shower?

Nice walk in & pebble floor. Also like that took time to seal everything and not putting on homeowner, which usually does happen b/c of timing etc…. ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL design & functional bathroom Reno👍🏻👍🏻 Cheers✌🏻

[@TileCoach]

Thanks Aepek, you know I haven’t given it much thought but I should probably include a sealer on all our jobs. Those little things really make a difference. I also left them with a gallon of miracle tile and stone cleaner as well.

[@scott4036]

Probably my favorite shower of yours. Stunning details

[@loralkinney]

I just recoated my tile with 511. Also (unless you have a hot water loop) you may want to think about moving the valve like near that window next time so you don't have to walk into the shower to turn on the shower and wait for hot water to get there. I put mine closer to entrance of shower but yet well within reach of showering. Right near the window would have been perfect. Just a thought.

[@TileCoach]

Great tip! The nice thing about having a handheld on a diverter is you can point it away from you while you wait for the water to hear up.

[@nickjames205]

Dude that is such beautiful work. I think this is my favorite that I've seen from you so far.

[@Aaron86v]

Looks really great! That sliver at the bottom really was the best choice and it blends in well with the pebbles. I am dying to try a linear drain, they just seem better in every way, unfortunately i dont think they work with pan liners if im correct and we've yet to expand in using that type of system. Great work as always.

[@TileCoach]

You can use them with pan liners, they make some specific for pan liner installations. Check out LUXE drains.

[@jeffb1886]

Great job. Getting ready to do something similar...remove jetted tub and make a larger shower. But!!!....concerned about 100% waterproofing around large horizontal slider with window channel that would be at chest level. Gotta keep water from finding its way to framing underneath. I may replace with 1/2 sized "basement" style window at head height. How did you seal around your windows????

[@thehonestman26]

Really nice. I've wanted a curbless, doorless shower ever since I saw one in Thailand 20 years ago on vacation. Thought it was the coolest thing. Only thing I struggle with is I think it would be great to have a bench in there with a rain showerhead over it, if you ever just wanted to just sit for a moment, put your head down, and feel the water on you. Not sure how to do that with just using a screen and not a door. Anyone have any suggestions, I'll take them. Going to start removing my jacuzzi tub and do this soon.

[@victor-manuel-pr]

[@saljablo2767]

@@Jubileejones that doesn’t make any sense.

[@Jubileejones]

@Sal Jablo caulk helps with stability and it looks nice/ finished, but a lot of people leave the back open/ uncaulked in case there's a leak later on. You don't want to trap a potential leak by sealing the entire perimeter, so the back is left open.

If I recall correctly, in the past I thought I heard you suggest to use the largest tile as possible on the floor and not to use mosaic to minimize grout joints.

[@splanzza]

Was waiting when that remote will make a flop and into the bidet. Luckily my prediction was wrong. Linear drain (to me) looks much more natural away from the wall vs against it. And last but not least: do you still use leveling clips, do they work on such textured/wavy floor tile or that was all done by the feel?

[@TileCoach]

No clips on this floor

[@splanzza]

@@TileCoach Amazing work as always. Would love to see how one can achieve no lippage without clips. Tile on TC!

[@lllmmm3572]

I do a lot of pausing on your final results to look at how they turn out, and I have to say this one is about as close to perfect as perfect can be. I don't know if you like to disclose prices, but I'm thinking this job, give the extent of it (including doing the floor outside the shower and heating it inside and out), and the quality of the materials, was probably north of $35K (maybe well north). Of course, the tile is the wildcard. I'm sure you can spend just about any amount of money on tile. You did a video with a tile contractor from Atlanta showing a pretty basic, small shower that he had said cost $24K. If I were to use that as a guide, I'd have to guess this shower cost over $50K.

Hello, quick question; I am redoing the tile around a tub, and at the part where the tub and wall meet, there is a gap all around, ranging from 1/4" to maybe 1/2" - 3/4". the walls are pretty even, but all the studs have that set back. I am using 3-ft x 5-ft x 1/2-in HardieBacker Fiber Cement Waterproof Backer Board, so I am thinking it will be over the tub edge in some places and under in others. How do you handle that, and what do you do about the gap where the tile actually hangs over the tub edge, and there is like 1/8" air gap between the back of the tile and the top edge of the tub. Thanks again, and great videos!
