i watched your video regarding building the curb using 2x4. i noticed that you used 1. treated wood on first one 2. standard 2x4 - 2 more 3. waterproof with Aquadenfense 3. cover with Oatey liner 4. cement board around the curb with thinset 4. then tile this is solid protection from leaking . did i miss anything? @@simonproatl

4. Cement board around the curb with thin set and fiberglass mesh (wrap entire curb or a least all seams with strong 2" fiberglass mesh). 5. 2-3 Layers of Waterproofing Membrane. 6. Tile (shower floor first and grout it then shower curb and shower walls) Good Luck! You Can DO IT :) @@vinhgolf

Great video. Trying to follow your foot steps. I noticed you did not leave a little gab between the curb tiles and shower floor tiles. Should there be at least 1/16 gab there?

[@simonproatl]

Yes. Graut will hold better is you leave small gap.

[@user-cp5yy2kk4e]

Hey, Simon, I followed your video and finished my shower curb. But I didn’t cut well on one inside curb tile, the gab between the bottom of this tile and the mosaic floor tile is slightly larger than 1/4”. Should I worry about that? Is silicon good for wider gaps? Any advices?@@simonproatl

[@simonproatl]

1/4" It's a large gap. If you grout it well and silicone it you should be OK. If you waterproof everything underneath you should be fine.

[@user-cp5yy2kk4e]

Thanks. You mean grout the 1/4 gap, then silicon on top of it?@@simonproatl

[@simonproatl]

You can use MAPEI Silicone Caulk that matches your grout color @@user-cp5yy2kk4e

Tile down to floor from side of curb seems to be no joint allowed

[@simonproatl]

1/16" to 1/8"

[@user-cp5yy2kk4e]

After smoothing out the thinset on top of the curb, how long did you wait before you installed marble top? It could take a while to cut the marble, and the thinset on top might have been dried? @simonproatl

[@simonproatl]

You don't want to wait thin set must be fresh. You have to cut your marble curb first then sooth out the thin set and install curb.

[@user-cp5yy2kk4e]

Thanks for the clarification. That make sense. @@simonproatl
