Building curbs for a shower pan out of concrete with the pvc pan liner coming up outside the door

Picture

Building a shower pan, old school, here you can see the PVC pan liner wraping up the wall behind the concrete board, next will be the concrete pour...

Picture

this cut away display shower pan shows how my pans are built up, showing pvc pan liner, concrete curbs with NO lumber, elastomeric paint on membrane...etc

Picture

my shower seats slope inwards to give plenty of room for your feet and are constructed from concrete/foams build ups or WEDI panels, either way no chance of leaks because the waterproofing is behind them...

Picture

same seat after tile is complete..

stone wall in pantry...  2023.  quartzite. veneer stones. dry stack-  tight joint style.   at time photo was taken shows 20 hours  of stone setting.  that's about a rate of about 0.65 square feet per hour...    so this 33 sqft wall will probably take me about 50 hours of labor to complete.  or 2 weeks.

this large 20x20 tile in this remodel job required undercutting door jams...standard procedure if you want a nice looking job.

Picture

I am a pet friendly contractor...

Picture

very custom kitchen backsplash tile job...showing metal edge

Picture
Picture
Picture

I didnt do this, but WOW! its in Italy...

Picture

showing two different storage areas, a tile shelf, and a metal basket holder... both very functional and easy to maintain.

Picture

stone shower pans can be site honed so they feel smooth on your feet...

Picture

this is what typical edges of stone floor tile look like when installed...

Picture

this is what they CAN look like, if one takes the time to round over all edges prior to the install, it makes a nicer finished floor.

Picture

this close up shows a large tile that has a rounded over or eased edge, as opposed to a sharp square edge (called rectified). when shoppiong for tile a rounded over smooth edge is always a must for me as it gives a better feeling floor to walk on and looks better.

Picture

notice the stone crown molding in this high end tub surround...

Picture

custom painted edges on tile, a service i provide, thus custom bullnose is not a problem...

Picture

notice how the cut tile turns the corner

Picture

this pattern was cut on a water jet. any shape is possible.

Picture

custom shower niches for soap, shampoo...

Picture

notice the wood look porcelain floor tiles here...

Picture

wood like porcelain tiles being installed with random look to simulate a real wood floor
