PART 2 . How to build & waterproof shower bench "seat" - installation from scratch - cement blocks.

http://www.tilemasterga.com Hi everyone . In my new clip I am showing how to build, waterproof and install shower bench "SEAT" from scratch using concrete blocks. This method is one of the safest and most durable to build in a wet area. Before starting on a shower, tile or bathroom remodeling project it is a good idea to research on how it can be done This project was done in Alpharetta GA.
I hope my video will be useful during your own bathroom projects. Feel free to ask mw any questions and leave comments.

My tips:
1) Don't worry about the weight of concrete seat
2) Avoiding regular studs and even treated in constructing your seat (I have remodeled many showers that had wooden seat and always it was rotten, moldy or causing leaks)

good idea but you didnt waterproof the bench you just lay the tile on top of the durock and blocks.

you are the man, i never thought to use blocks! Great idea!

@deezynar "water proofing" Well you could use redguard or drylock But theres nothing to protect , and you be holding back water thats needs to weep from behind wall board if you water proofed the bottom.

Very Smart, best way to go. Wood framed benches always cause headaches.

[deezynar]

Could you put water proofing over the blocks and seal the bench before you lay tiles on it?

[speway]

Impressive skill and technique… Your attention to detail as it pertains to future proofing the investment is outstanding.
