Before the project

Prepare for waterproofing.

A little planning helps the work start smoothly, keeps the site safer, and protects the finished result.

Preparation checklist

Five steps before we arrive.

Your final scheduling notes and proposal take priority; this guide helps you know what to expect.

01

Finalize the wet-area design

Confirm shower size, drain, curb or curbless details, niches, benches, and fixtures.

02

Coordinate plumbing

Drain, valve, and supply work must align with the selected waterproofing system.

03

Allow full cure time

Membranes, sealants, and flood tests require uninterrupted product-specific timing.

04

Keep the assembly undisturbed

No other trade should puncture or modify completed waterproofing without coordination.

05

Confirm tile compatibility

Mortars and finishes must be approved for the selected membrane system.

Before installation day

Simple site readiness.

Create a clear route

Keep entrances, hallways, stairs, elevators, and the path to every work area open.

Protect people and pets

Arrange a separate safe area away from tools, materials, dust, adhesives, and active work.

Confirm responsibilities

Know who handles furniture, appliances, plumbing, doors, trim, disposal, and other coordinated work.

Share access details

Provide parking, keys, codes, building rules, work hours, and the best day-of contact.
