1 - No pre-slope beneath the liner...so water that might get to the pan has no gravity effect directing it to the adjustable ring drain, so water sits on the flat liner and ...well...we have all smelled stinky bathrooms where the mold is not seen...but to the nose.
2 - Concrete and water mud for the pan...not " dry pack " aka " deck mud "
3 - No blocking between the studs - to support the liner
4 - No leak test was performed - Inspector would have failed this here
The cement board on the walls goes down OVER the liner that's tacked to the wall. That way if it ever did lead water would stay in the liner. The cement board meets the cement basin and makes a watertight overlap to put the tile on.

This chick is hilarious... She should wear a thong while doing this project so that the plumbers crack is more appealing.

I prefer a mic of 3 to 1 Portland cement and sand mixed with quickrete bonding agent instead of water.
