    Mortar s not water proof and a water proof barrier is needed.What is the floor material below? Have you considered a ready made plan like a Swanstone http://www.theswancorp.com/images/li...6neo_38neo.pdf or even using a Kerdi system Shower Systems - Schluter-Systems

    The Kerdi system can go down directly on concrete. Schluter-KERDI-ST/-SC/-SR/-SB - Schluter-Systems Is your drain already ruoughed in where you want it? You can also try Tile Redi http://www.wayfair.com/Tile-Redi-Sin...FYMKKgodMnYEIw
