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 dimensions, curb or curbless entry, drain, niches, benches, fixtures and waterproofing limits. Identify steam or other demanding exposure before selecting the system.

02

Assign the trade responsibilities

Agree on framing, plumbing, drains, waterproofing, tile and final connections. Complete required supporting and plumbing work in the planned sequence.

03

Arrange a clear work area

Remove belongings and confirm access, protected storage, parking, keys or codes, building rules, permitted hours and a day-of contact. Keep children and pets outside active work zones.

04

Protect cure and testing time

Maintain required conditions and uninterrupted curing, inspection and test windows. Plan for the wet area to remain unavailable; schedule tile and later trades only after approval to proceed.

05

Prevent unplanned alterations

No later trade should puncture or modify the finished waterproofing without coordination. Confirm tile and mortar compatibility and the inspection record before the system is covered.
