Step 8: Waterproofing and Moisture Management (The Non‑Negotiable)
Bathrooms are wet rooms. If the system behind the tile isn’t built right, no amount of beautiful finish will save it.
A quality-focused build includes: - Proper preparation behind tile surfaces - Thoughtful transitions and detailing (corners, edges, penetrations) - Ventilation planning to reduce lingering moisture - Testing/verification at key steps
This is one of the biggest advantages of working with a professional design-build team: the system is managed, not guessed.
