This video was very helpful! We recently ordered a frameless glass door to replace our framed door with a broken hinge. The estimator neglected to tell us that the wall where they were going to hang the frameless door had water damage. So, a few weeks later when the installers came, after ripping out our current stall they informed us they could not install the new door because it would not hang on the damaged Rock. Of course they are only glass installers, not tile and drywall people and they couldn't recommend any contacts for us. So we are currently experiencing a huge delay trying to find someone to fix this since I will not have time to do it myself in the next 6 months. However if I do end up doing it myself I should be able to do it similar to this video. It was EXACTLY what I needed. I think it included all of the steps I will need to fix the transition area. I was happy to see that you confirmed my idea to scab in a nailing post because there is no stud in the location where we need to Anchor the frameless glass door. An excellent idea.

When going over cracks in concrete or cold relief joints you need to use crack isolation membrane. If you use straight thinset they will crack through your tiles, but if you use a crack isolation membrane the concrete or movement in the walls or floors has no effect on the tile.

I think it would be helpful if you explained one of the most frustrating things for the average tile guy (who watches your video and buys most of his materials from big box stores) is the "Nominal sizing" of tile backer board. Unless you know what you're doing, buying a 1/2" backer board will get you only a 3/8" thick product. That will NOT mate up well with 1/2" drywall. In this video, yours seems to mate just fine, so either you're using actual 1/2" backer board or 3/8" drywall.... Unless you really know about this, you can get into a bunch of problems when tiling from backer board to drywall on ONE PLANE. The best approach is to make sure you purchase ACTUAL 1/2" thick backer board for the surfaces that must meet up with 1/2" drywall. I've not found box stores in my area carrying actual sizes. I can only get it at pro suppliers....where you may be buying yours......but, your videos are for non-pros. The time to know this is BEFORE you get to the job with a load of materials that will cause you a headache.

Also, I've torn out plenty of moldy backer board. It performs horribly when exposed to moisture. Sucks up water, gets all crumbly, and makes a great environment for black mold. If I could post pictures here, I have plenty. This is where the modern method of applying the vapor barrier to the installation surface shines. I don't even do morter beads anymore. They're just a trap for moisture. I'm hopeful I don't have to replace any of my shower pans. As far as I could tell in the video, he didn't preslope the niche cavity or the curb. Personally, think it's a good idea to preslope all horizontal surfaces.

@@pkjr216 I've become less of a fan of Redguard for the same reasons Issac doesn't like it. The 1/2 Hardi precoated with Redguard has the same problem Redguard itself has. It changes color when water sits on it. Both Issac and I agree that this suggest it's changing the properties of the product. If you're using it in an application that completely dries out it's probably fine, but in an application where it stays wet, I don't trust it. In one circumstance I coated the Redguard with an oil based rustolium waterproofing paint. I like the oil better. It beads the water and does not penitrate the surface. I won't use Redguard on shower floors anymore. I did a couple years ago and haven't had any call backs, but I'll only use it on walls now, and for that, I believe it's fine.

I've worked as a drywall finisher for nearly 7 years now and am finishing up my studies to become licensed in my state. From my experience: I have seen builders use just the mold resistant drywall above and proceed to paper tape and finish it with regular joint compound (referring to the corners/angles where walls meets ceiling). Although I haven't seen the next phase in person. My best guess would be that the tile guys would then proceed and seal it up to the wall part of the angle.

Why not just run the backerboard out past the curb to the corner (covering the entire area you are using are using the purple drywall to cover)? I redid a shower with a contractor I know 11 years ago. He just used drywall mud to coat the Durock backerboard where the drywall would have normally gone. The result was that you can't even tell where the backerboard is. It is finished and textured like the rest of the bathroom drywall, and you'd never know it was Durock. It has lasted perfectly well all of these years. It resulted in fewer joints, and the Durock is not subject to damage if water somehow gets beyond the curb.
