DIY Tile Shower |Tub Insert to Stone Tile Wall Shower

Since we bought this house our main bathroom was a tired space with a fiberglass one piece bathtub and shower surround insert. Today we are going to remodel to a DIY Tile Shower and replace the tub insert with beautiful stone subway tile walls.

This was a BIG project, especially since the shower renovation was only part of the project more videos on the bathroom remodel to come (subscribe!) To start I gutted the entire bathroom which started by cutting the sheet rock to expose the bathtub flange so the tub could be removed. The easiest way to get the insert out of the house was to cut it apart! Once that was out I chose to waterproof under the tub, not necessary but why not add more protection to your home if you can, it is not completely waterproof but better than nothing. Then used PEX and tigerbite plumbing fittings to add a new shower/tub mixing valve. Used KERDI-BOARD to waterproof the walls and ALL-SET thin-set to install all the stone look porcelain tile on the walls. I added expansion joint profiles in the inside corners and some beautiful stainless steel round ending profiles for a stunning finished look!
