Shower Pans

stevetcg · #1 Sep 30, 2009, 10:02 AM

I watch a lot of DIY Network and HGTV. One day I was watching Bathroom Renovations and Amy used this 4 piece drain pan thing made of high impact foam. Basically it came in 4 quarters. You trimmed each piece to size and the middle formed around the drain. Then membrane was added and the whole deal was tiled over.

Does anyone have any idea what I am talking about and where I can get one of these? We have a plastic insert shower in our master bath and its just horrible. I would like to take steps to start making our MBa as nice as the rest of the house...

Any opinions on these? Anyone ever used one? Seems pretty simple for a DIYer.

Disregard part of my question... google turned up what I was looking for.

Schluter-KERDI-SHOWER-KIT - Schluter-Systems

The question on opinions remain though...

Thanks Mark. It looked easy on DIY Network, but for some reason, everything looks easy there.

Any guess how the price (~$550) compares to having a pro come in an put in a custom concrete base? (of course the price different in Boston will be different but a good guess all the same)

Go Sox!
