I wish that you were in the Memphis area. I wish I could find someone here to install a shower like you do it. Great videos. Thank you for posting them.

Hi I got a brand new basement and they poured cement over the shower drain and mark an X where the drain is, so where do I crack the cement? Around the X or right the X to find the pipe ?Thank you.

[@simonproatl]

Hard to tell usually they will leave a pipe that sticks out.

I need to do this on my first floor with concrete floor. Do you have a series of videos I can watch from start to finish for building a shower from the ground up? Thanks in advance!

[@simonproatl]

I have few videos that will show you how to build a pre sloped pan, install liner and build shower pan.

i have a question cutting the 2" drain PVC pipe, when using the white or gray oatley , why only cut 1/34" for white and 2" if using gray ? is it a rule to leave 3/4" ?

[@simonproatl]

The bottom of each drain has a different length. If you cut your pipe flush with the concrete and lets say you are using gray drain then you will have too cut off 2" from your pipe to fit your gray drain. You should have 1/2" to 3/4" of your PVC pipe inside your drain.

got it...thank you@@simonproatl

Where did you get the white drain from ????

[@simonproatl]

Home Depot

Ok I think I did this wrong 😭. My basement shower was stubbed in. I poured the mortar already and thought I was supposed to cut the drain pipe and fit the drain fitting after the mortar dried. What do I do now?!

[@simonproatl]

Sorry to hear that.

[@djrubio8811]

do I need pan liner in concrete floor ?

[@simonproatl]

yes
