From the before photos to the new tile work, this shower has been quite a project. Once we opened the walls, we found extensive rot in the framing caused by water getting behind the shower. What looked like a tile renovation became a structural repair: we had to address the damaged framing, replace the insulation, and rebuild the shower with proper waterproofing with Schluter-Systems North America before we could move forward with tile. Then came the detail work. We installed a bold patterned tile across the shower walls and bench, carefully carrying the design through the corners, along with a hexagon mosaic floor and a properly pitched drain area. Getting all of those patterns and transitions to work together took patience and plenty of careful layout. We’re proud of how this project came together, and grateful to the homeowners for trusting us to do the work behind the finished surface, not just what you see in the photos. We also want to sincerely apologize to our future clients whose schedules have been affected by our delays. Illness and unexpected repairs like the hidden damage on this and other projects have pushed our timeline back, and we understand that changes to your start date can disrupt your plans. We’re truly sorry for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience and understanding as we work through the backlog.

This project is a perfect example of why the work you can’t see is just as important as the finished tile you can. When we began demolition on this walk-in shower, we uncovered significant damage behind the walls. Unfortunately, several installation mistakes contributed to the failure:

💧 Improper waterproofing — Cement board itself is not a complete waterproofing system. A properly installed waterproofing method is critical in a wet area like a shower.

🔨 Incorrect trowel selection / mortar coverage — Using the proper trowel for the tile being installed is essential to achieving adequate mortar coverage and a strong bond.

🧱 No back-buttering — These tiles were not properly back-buttered, contributing to poor mortar coverage and adhesion.

📏 Improper grout-joint spacing — Consistent, properly sized grout joints aren't just about appearance. They are an important part of a professional tile installation.

Individually, shortcuts may not seem like a big deal. Put them together in a shower that sees water every day, and the consequences can become much more serious. Once we opened the walls, we discovered extensive moisture damage and deteriorated framing that had to be addressed before we could even think about rebuilding the shower. This is why proper preparation matters.
Beautiful tile is only the finished surface. The waterproofing, substrate preparation, mortar coverage, layout, and installation methods behind it are what determine whether that shower performs for years to come. We’ll be sharing the rebuilding process as we correct the damage and put this shower back together the right way.

From Vinyl to Cedar 🌲🚿

Another outdoor shower transformation completed by Justin Time Home Improvement! We took an existing vinyl outdoor shower and gave it a complete upgrade with a beautiful natural cedar shower enclosure. The cedar completely changes the look and feel of the space while giving it that timeless, high end coastal look. From the demolition to the finished cedar installation, we love turning an ordinary space into something our customers can really enjoy. What do you think of the transformation? 👇
