We recessed sistered framing on existing floor joists. Braced the perimeter of subfloor around cutout. Then cut pieces of plywood to fit within the recessed areas. Thus, dropping the subfloor to the depth of top of joist.
Then installed building paper and lath and mudded a slope for the shower pan towards a newly installed drain flange.
We then taped and mudded seams of cement board and coated all the tile prep materials installed with 3 coats of Laticrete HydroBan. A prime coat the first day, and 2 additional coats the day after.
Customer asked if we could add a built-in wall niche. So we accommodated her request and framed that in to go with layout of the wall tile.
Pieced together one by one a pebble stone mosaic shower floor. And installed 12x24 floor tile outside of shower in rest of bathroom.
There was just an added day of labor to transform the tile shower remodel into a curbless entry option for this customer.
