I’d like to think I have decent upper body strength, but the shower pan and holding up cement boards really tested that. Products Used: Cement/Backer Board, Seam Tape, Thin Set
#Onyx shower pan install
The drain took a little more coaxing because ours was a tight fit but the steps to install the drain are clear. The pan came with clear directions for this step and overall I’d say it was pretty easy to set down and get glued in place. Shower Pan: Onyx Collection in Glacier White, Med-Height Profile So we ordered a third toilet through a different company and it arrived in perfect shape. You could actually hear the broken pieces moving around in the box when it was delivered.
The next toilet came in and the base was shattered into pieces. Toilet arrives – little bit of damage at the base and a flaw on the tank. So finding a toilet to fit the odd rough-in took a couple nights of searching. For some odd reason the previous homeowners did a 14″ rough-in when a 12″ rough-in is standard (or at least done 98% of the time). We also ordered a toilet during this period. (Tile would be installed after.) We used the exact same floor we had installed in the rest of the basement, and are really happy with that decision. Onyx recommend that luxury vinyl plank flooring gets installed to go fully under the shower pan. After we were happy with the leveling job, we installed the flooring. You can’t have a shower pan that rocks back and forth or dips in the center where a person is standing to shower. It took us THREE tries to get that floor under the shower pan level. This was another timing setback as we did not account for having to level the floor. We quickly realized the floor was not level when we were dry-fitting the pan. I also found a paint color and painted the walls. We found our tile! I was so indecisive with the tile but we found marble tile from a local overstock hardware/DIY supply store for a steal. I realized the faucet I had originally picked out was not only damaged, but it looked terrible with the vanity. In the meantime we were able to pick up our flooring and some other supplies we needed for the project.
