NO BUILD UP Shower Foam Tray Install - LATICRETE HYDRO BAN

[@jonathan0o0dawKins]

Dude, not having to with the fuss, mess, and build-up from waterproofing corners and bands is a huge benefit to this system. The sad thing the majority of our jobs are from custom builders who dry pack and board with Densshield, so a lot of pre-folding bands are still in my future.

[@Mike-In-O-Town]

Love watching your videos as I not only learn from them, I'm also motivated to work much cleaner while installing. Love that Laticrete kit. Will have to consider it when I opt to redo my master bathroom hopefully after the first of the year.

Go Berg! That's for the tutorial! Loving that soundtrack finale.

[@plumbbuild6517]

Nice job laticrete is probably my favorite backer to work with thanks for another great video

[@BonBon770]

Well.. that's not Keying in the substrate but if you say so. They must do things differently Where You Are lol. Use the flat side of the trowel push the thinset into the substrate then turn the trowel around and rake it, raking it only is not keying in the substrate! Thank you

[@king4456]

I thought you were supposed to fill the entire curb with thin set so there's not a void.We've stepped on it the next day and punched through before on the foam schluter curb.

[@igmanusa]

Another great video! How do you handle cutting the Laticrete pans? Do you have to maintain the "groove" that is there? Have you mixed Schluter trays with Laticrete Hydro Ban board? If so, what type of waterproofing at the wall/pan junction? Thanks!!

[@gustavop7761]

We need an answer Landberg if you do have one , doing self leveling before the shower pan is not a time saver for sure, love to see this as a hybrid between schluter and laticrete

[@swaggoner8989]

Another great video! I was getting worried since it’s been a while😆

[@LandbergTileTV]

Took some time away from social media and spent time with family 🤙

[@mikebari3225]

do you have to let everything dry before applying the hydro ban membrane or can you just do it all in a day ?

[@williamtexeira6671]

awesome vid Bro 😎

[@benduea2713]

Good one! Which do you prefer?

[@biblgrl6563]

Would I be able to eliminate the banding if I set the Hydroban board on a mud pan tray with a recessed edge & covered with Hydroban membrane and sealed with Hydroban sealant? Most shower pans I've installed are not "stock" sizes and therefore could not have the perimeter recess like the one in your video has.

[@aliciaw8121]

Laticrete says you can use their adhesive/sealant around the shower pan seams to waterproof instead of the banding/corners?

[@LandbergTileTV]

Yes, you can do that also. We've done it that way

[@crosstheline.1969]

Always learn something from you !! thank you. 감사해요

[@Pri79111]

How long does one have to wait on the silicone adhesive to dry so we can waterproof test the shower pan?

[@LandbergTileTV]

2 hours. This is off Laticrete data sheet Flood Testing Allow for flood testing in 2 hours at 70°F (21°C) and 50% RH or higher before flood testing. Cold and /or dry conditions will require a longer curing time.

[@tommyt1556]

Help, please. What would you do if you had to fit this 32x60 in a smaller rectangle (3 walls and a curb) and the drain was in the middle and off-center. Respectfully, videos like this are educational and helpful. However, more often than not a 32x60 pre-fab stock pan has to be cut and custom fit into a space. Consequently, the decisions are to either minimize your cuts and sacrifice your perimeter, level edges and wallboard rabbet or cut the board multiple times preserving the factory edges and piecing it back together. Was I overthinking that factory edge needed to be preserved? We want a nice straight line where the tiled walls meet the pan floor.

[@LandbergTileTV]

Factory edge is not a big deal with rectified tile, a diamond pad can make it look factory.

[@5yvo342]

Love how many ways you can waterproof a shower pan. I’m currently working on a shower at home with the same style tile - mosaic flat marble stone. What do you usually use to seal this kind of tile? Do you seal before or after grouting? Love the channel! Keep the content coming!!!

[@LandbergTileTV]

We always seal marble pan tile prior to install

[@BZ1340]

Trowel size for setting the pan. Do you have to wait a certain amount of time after setting the pan do keep the process going and the pan not moving around while its setting in the thinset.

[@garrettsoto1667]

Bro your back!

[@LandbergTileTV]

Hell yeah brother! 👊

[@tedspens]

Nice video but I like having tape in the corners. The build up is minimal if done right, it doesn't take long or cost much, and I sleep better. I'm not fond of foam either, especially for small tiles.

[@LandbergTileTV]

I am 100% confident that this shower will outlive me.

[@jeosua]

Very nice. I prefer wedi. Much faster than laticrete and schluter in my opinion. I put a 2x4 in between each bay on the bottom plate

[@j.w.r.i2910]

Why ?

[@jeosua]

@@j.w.r.i2910 wedi no need for sheet membrane. 2x4 in bottom of bay to reinforce.

[@justingiese6544]

Cant find any place in Southern California (San Bernardino/riverside area) that stocks hydro ban wall board and sealant. Seems to be a special order item. Called Laticrete Corona location, they directed me to distributors that dont stock the wall board or pan kits.

[@LandbergTileTV]

Yeah, some areas don't carry it.

Have you officially converted from Schlueter? Would you put this in your own house?

[@LandbergTileTV]

No, I use Schluter and Laticrete, awesome systems for sure!

[@biblgrl6563]

I'm doing the same type of shower with subway tile and goboard and schluter shower tray. Would I be able to eliminate using banding when using the goboard sealant? Should I use hydroban liquid membrane as an extra precaution? Just trying to eliminate buildup with banding.

[@LandbergTileTV]

I understand, but you need to check manufactures instructions

[@goldfruitco6841]

this must cost $10,000

[@lesg9604]

Probably right depending on your location. Had a quote from a contractor for a tub shower tile surround come in $9-11k. Total bathroom remodel was $18-20k. Used laticrete hydroban as my backer and waterproofed for the shower, and complet d the entire bathroom for under $7k using higher end material than what was quoted. If you sub it out, it’s 11. If you have some know how, diy would probably be 3-5k

[@goldfruitco6841]

@@lesg9604 sounds about right. you're definitely not getting this quality in a new subdivision.

[@lesg9604]

Landberg is top notch for sure. There’s a satisfaction one gets from doing a job of this magnitude themself even if the quality is 80% of a professional for 1/3 the price. This shower I did being my second, I definitely made a few errors but am like 90% happy with the overall job. Also, using this system gave me tons of confidence that I’ll have no water issues.
