I am completely remodeling our bathroom and as of now I’m just finishing up screwing in the last durorock piece. This tape needs to be applied to every area where the cement board panels butt against each other or other sections of drywall/plaster. Whether you’re doing a small bathroom remodel or a large project, the tips in this tutorial are great.Īdding self-adhesive alkali-resistant fiberglass tape to all the cement board seams is a really important step. I also like KERDI-BOARD because it’s faster to install. Cement board is the cheapest backer board for showers. The last few posts about this bathroom remodeling project discussed hanging cement boards to the bathtub wood studs. I love hearing about your projects! Add Cement Board Tape to All Seams If at any point you have a question or tip of your own, please type it in the comment section below.
I know this post will guide your bathroom renovation project in the right direction.
Like I’ve said before, even if you don’t do this type of work it’s always a good idea to familiarize yourself with the process so that you know a good job is being performed on your behalf.īeing your own advocate is a smart thing in any endeavor and especially so in home remodeling. I’m sharing this experience so that either you can waterproof your cement board or instruct your contractor to do what I did. I’ve discussed RedGard before because it prevents water from seeping into walls & serves as a crack prevention membrane for the tiles.
