How to water proof your tile shower install

[Jay H.]

When I am installing a new shower, I always use peel and stick tar tape and 6mill plastic visqueen. 

1st peel and stick the tar tape to the studs and stick to the top 1" lip of the base and staple to the studs.

2nd overlay the visqueen on top of the tar tape and staple to the studs

3rd properly attach your hardy board over the visqueen.
