This show was an impromptu spur of the moment thing. Today I announce a summer enrollment special for Bathroom Repair Tutor and give you some QUICK TIPS on bathtub waterproofing.
Often people ask me how to waterproof between cement board and the tub. This is SUPER important to get right. SO I dive into this solution head first.
First tip is with RedGard and Thin-set…very simple but sometimes overlooked.
Tip #2 is with Schluter KERDI-BOARD…this one I like even better than the first tip.
Listen to the show for all the details.

Shutoff valves…when you need them sometimes they don’t work. Today you’ll learn which kind of shutoff is the best and how to replace your old one. PLUS we answer fan questions about how to fix a faulty tub installation and faucet handle issue.
The RotoZip winner will also be announced and I discuss some big changes happening over on Home Repair Tutor. Very exciting stuff.
