Choosing the Best Shower Waterproofing System: Cost vs. Time Breakdown In this webinar, I break down every major shower waterproofing system I've used over the years — comparing the real trade-offs between cost and installation time so you can pick the right one for your project. We cover both curbless and curb shower builds, including: Mud bed shower pans — the most affordable and flexible option, especially over concrete subfloors Foam pan systems (Schluter/Kerdi, Wedi, Hydro Block) — faster installs but at a premium price, with an honest look at their pros, cons, and durability issues Tile Ready pre-sloped pans and GoBoard — simple, budget-friendly alternatives worth considering Liquid waterproofing (like Aqua Defense and similar membranes) — why I consider this the most foolproof method for long-term protection I also go over subfloor height requirements for wood and concrete, slope specs for different tile types (including pebble stone), how to prevent capillary water siphoni
