Insane Bathroom remodel- How to Build an indoor cave
What happens here
After the perimeter boards are cut and fitted, they are installed, secured by screws or adhesive to the concrete subfloor. The main central area of the shower room is then filled with parallel composite boards, which are designed to free-float due to the tight fit against the perimeter and the force of gravity. This section also highlights that the central boards are removable to allow access to the underlying drain, making maintenance easier. The entire floor is angled down towards the drain for proper water flow.
Goal: Lay the main floor boards and create an accessible drain area.
Tools and materials
- Composite Decking Boards MoistureShield — The main flooring material
- Rubber Mallet/Hammer — Tapping boards into place for a tight fit
- Screws/Adhesive — Securing the perimeter boards
- Silicone Sealant — Creating a watertight seal between the composite board and the wall
