A curbless shower looks seamless but needs the drain set below the floor line. Here is the Sugar Land guide.
The drain depth
The drain must sit low enough for the floor to slope without a curb to hold water back.
The waterproofing
A waterproof membrane extends well beyond the wet area to protect the subfloor.
The framing
Floor joists may need adjusting to recess the pan, so it matters early in the project.
The call
Plan it before the tile goes down. Call 888-217-3585 and Sugar Land Plumber Connect will match you with a Sugar Land pro.
