Showers and baths done incorrectly can cause thousands in damages to your home.
I've renovated many bathrooms on Maui (and across the States) and see all of these issues when taking them apart:
- Mold around edge of shower/bath on the caulking (easily preventable if the wall board under the tile is set properly)
- No waterproofing on shower pan or walls
- Mold inside the wall up to 2' high (caused by wicking)
- Misaligned drain, valve, or shower head
- No P-trap for the drain (that's why you smell sewer gases)
- Lipped/uneven/unlevel tile
- Grout lines cracking and crumbling
- Tiles on the shower wall glued with liquid nail to plywood (for real)
- Tiles set completely wrong (no trowel marks, just globs of thinset mortar)
- Leaking water supply lines
And much much more
If you want your remodel done right the first time, I’ll come out and walk through your project with you.
I’ve installed every type of tile and done every bath/shower configuration, including bath-to-shower conversions like the one pictured above.
