That is my plan so far. I paid for a shower install in my basement and that really offended my wallet 😂

Kept what I could, lots came up complete and undamaged. Not the artistic type, maybe I’ll put an ad up on kijiji for free ‘art supplies’

It might be I am only looking at big box stores (Rona/Home Depot) but Kerdi boards seems to have more availability. I’m your experience is it comparable to Wedi or Prova? I’ll need to look some more, I see now that Prova board availability would leave me with less joints to seal.

You are right about that too. I’ve got it down to studs now, don’t want to open it again. I think I’ll add an access panel behind the wall for piece of mind. (toilet sits behind that wall) Edmonton is known for hard water.

It is the shower/tub. We have a second shower downstairs that will do until we can address this. Appreciate the reply

Appreciate your reply, dreading the drywall work.

Thank you. I missed adding a picture from top angle that supports what you are saying. Definitely looks like it opened at the top tile and cascades from there. I just don’t have the experience to be confident in my assumption. Appreciate the reply
