    Wet room tray ...

    I have a walk in shower room ... Sort of a wet room but not quite.

    Kerdi shower pan extension advice?

    Hey. I doing my first walk-in tiled shower. The shower is 4’x8’. Most of the floor is covered with a Kerd pre-sloped shower tray. I’m going to make up the remainder with drypack (4’x 3’) What I didn’t consider is that, to maintain proper slope, the drypack at its highest point will be 5/16”...

    Schluter kerdi membrane install on shower stall floor.

    I have part completed shower stall with a partial Schluter kerdi membrane install on the floor. Can I pour Levelquick over the Kerdi? Then new Kerdi on top? It seems the slop to the drain is too steep and I want to reduce it to 1/8" per foot. The shower is 78" by 48" if that matters

    When Installing Kerdi, do I need someone trained in it?

    Hello, I'm having problems finding a tiler who knows how to use Kerdi board. I've had a few tilers respond to my adverts but it soon becomes clear that they don't know it ("after we put the board up, we then tank it"). Do I need someone who has done a Schluter course or has used Kerdi before...

    Schlüter Kerdi Board

    Often I see it being used in the US and Canada. It’s incredibly rare to see anyone use it in the UK or GB I’m wondering why this is? Could it be cost or could it be that the Price isn’t so much of an issue over the pond and a higher price is paid in general for Tiling/Prep work. I’ve used...

    Skimming Kerdi board

    has anybody plastered 12.5mm kerdiboard? We have a small section in our bathroom that will not be tiled and it's easier extending the Kerdi rather than putting hardibacker up in its place. Also has anybody used a c2 s2 to attach it to a good plastered wall. Thanks Rach
