Waterproofing is the whole job. Tile is a wear surface, not a water barrier - what keeps water out of the framing is the membrane behind it, and a shower built without a proper pan and bonded membrane will rot the subfloor whatever it looks like.
Tub-to-shower conversions are the most requested change and the most commonly botched, usually at the curb and the drain: the pan has to slope to the drain evenly or water sits against the curb and finds the gap.
Deep frost depth and heavy snow load shape everything structural here, from footing depth to ice-dam protection at the eaves.
What the job includes
- Tub-to-shower conversion
- Waterproof pan and membrane systems
- Tile shower and wet-room builds
- Vanity, toilet and fixture replacement
- Exhaust ventilation sized and ducted
- Grab bars and accessible layouts
