Waterproofing your bathroom's shower or tub surround can be hard.

This is Part 1.

Here's what we like about KERDI-BOARDs, they're

-light
-can be cut with a utility knife
-don't create dust
-thermally insulating
-and fast to install

Plus it's not messy, that's always icing on the cake.

Start the installation by measuring your main wall.

Cut the KERDI-BOARD to size with a utility knife.

Btw, KERDI-BOARDs come in different thicknesses and dimensions. In our example we used 48" x 64' x 1/2" boards.

You need to attach the boards to studs using Schluter's washers and screws.

There are specific requirements for screw spacing, we cover this in the video and our written tutorial over on Home Repair Tutor.
