General Tile Discussion

my knee wall tile ends just below the top. This is based on a full tile just under the window. I have these 3/4 tiles that I could install. but it messes up the top of the kneewall which will have a granit (or equiv) slab.

The project was complex and lenghty. During the demolition, after removing the old fiberglass shower, the vinyl flooring, and 1/4" plywood underlayment, we found significant subfloor damage and mold. We removed the walls surrounding the old shower, 3/4 of the subfloor, had to do mold remediation, and structural reinforcement to the joists.

To start the rebuild, we leveled floor joists and recessed them where we installed the new custom Tile Redi curbless shower pan. Isaac was right on when it comes to the simplicity of installing and sealing Tile Redi pans. We built a new wall for the shower plumbing and a knee wall for the shower. …

I'm doing a shower over a wood subfloor. Issac in videos says to put down plastic with a galvanized lath stapled over the plastic. Do you run the plastic and lath up the sides also? Thx in advance
