Schluter/Kerdi Installations

[Lazarus]

OK...I assume that at least SOME folks her are conversant with Kerdi Showers. Who actually DOES them and what is your experience WITH them?

Folks, this is "Cutting Edge" stuff. Yeah, I have (and do) traditional mud showers, but I've been "Schluterized!" I attended a recent seminar in Greenville, S.C. where I was baptised into the 21st Century!

Here's a clue, call your local Schluter Rep and tell him you want to attend the next training program. You need to pay your way up & back....but Schluter will pick up EVERYTHING else! Figure a 5 star hotel....all the meals, and anything else.

Trust this: They Treat You Like Royalty! (And you'll learn somethin'!)

The John Bridge Forum recently had about 60 attendees at their seminar....and it was VERY Worth While!

You can check out this thread on the experience:

Ceramic Tile Advice Forums - John Bridge Ceramic Tile - The Schluterization of TYW

This is a seemingly continueing saga of out time there. If it seems we're a bit crazy....that's only because we are!

We were Schluterized a couple years back, and been doing them since. We did a steam shower recently. Check it out.

Nice work, Danny~~~ "You da Man!"

I have not built a Kerdi shower yet. Not that I am opposed to it, but its seems the few showers I built the last years don't lend themselves to trying it for the first time. That's what Bud told me anyway . Actually I am looking forward to a normal 3 sided 3' x 4' to give it a try.

I like Schluter stuff and have been using Ditra for several years now.

[Bud Cline]

Been doing Schluter showers for five or six years, they are the only way to go for me these days. If I can't do Schluter I won't do the shower.

In Jerry's case I would never discourage anyone doing a Schluter shower but Jerry was getting into a pretty nice package and there is a learning curve with the Schluter products that a guy wouldn't want to put into effect on a weird shower without a little experience first..

[Lazarus]

Jerry~ Don't be afraid of the Schluter/Kerdi showers. Once you do one, you'll never go back!

You know I don't think it matters what type of shower it is; if it can be done with Kerdi it's the right type of shower to do Kerdi with.

It is the ONLY way we will bid a shower anymore, I just feel like it eliminates the liability or risk of waterproofing a shower as long as it is done properly

I already talked to him about it. Stop baiting an argument. If it makes you feel better, I edited out the link. But that post was more than a week old and died a peacful death. You should have left it that way if your only reason for replying to it is to go after someone you're pissed off at. Next time, try clicking the Report Post icon.

The problem is even if the thread IS old someone doing a search can get happen to link to this thread or other threads.
AND then they get information that is just plain wrong coming from you know who.

Well, then post the correct information. But don't turn it into a Jerry Springer thread. If the information given is bad information, then say so and present the right information. I just don't want this to turn into a name calling fest and the consumer is left with only one sure thing: we're ALL a bunch of assholes.

I've done far too much of that in the past myself. I don't want to see anyone repeat my mistakes.

T, it doesn't matter if we post the correct information. Hugh will continue to argue the point, get argumentive and just down right ugly about things. He trys to make people think he is the only one with the "correct" info.

We have lots of experience with Hugh Scott on other boards and he's been thrown off of most of them.
