Pro Tip: Why You Should Never Skip Waterproofing
Proper waterproofing is essential—especially in older homes with plaster walls and aging subfloors. We use Schluter® waterproofing membranes behind all shower tile installs and perform flood testing prior to final tile installation. These steps help prevent mold growth and water damage over time.
