    Building a shower stall base with waterproof membrane
    I plan on ripping out the old tub in a mobile home, and installing a walk in shower. What is the correct sequence of steps required to build up the base, slope the thinset or cement, and install the membrane. Is there a video available. I plan on ceramic tiling the stall once it is ready.
