Traverine Shower

Picture
Using natural stone does have its advantages.  In this shower there are many edges and corners that were constructed by bull-nosing, shaping the edge of the tile, so that it meets the adjoining tile in a more sleek manner.  Because the edges can be shaped, these 18" pieces of travertine where ripped down to 9" squares and then sanded on the edges and used above the marble listello.  With most ceramic tiles it is important to hide the cut edge of the tile in the corner because after it is cut it looks nothing like the factory edge of the tile.  Bull-nosing ceramic is typically not visually appealing as the color of the tile is only on the surface.  However some manufactures do make accompanying bull-nose to there field tiles but typically only in 3x12" pieces.  So natural stone can give many more possibilities when bull-nosing is needed. 

Travertine Shower with quartz pan

Picture
This shower was constructed with hardibacker cement board with kerdi waterproof membrane.  Since travertine is porous, waterproofing the walls prevents any chance of moisture transfer.  The travertine was sealed two times both before and after grouting to protect the stone and to enhance the coloring of the travertine.

Kerdi Shower

Picture
Showers constructed using the mud pan method require sloping a thick bed of mud to the drain hole, installing a rubber liner and then installing another layer of mud before finally installing tile.  This can be a multiple day process since you need to wait until the mud cures before moving to the next step.  The drain associated with this type of pan construction is called a weep hole drain which "weeps" away water that makes its way under the 2nd layer of mud to the rubber liner.  If the rubber liner has a leak or the first mud bed was not properly sloped, it will lead to failure.  As an alternative to constructing a time consuming mud shower pan, kerdi shower kits provide you with a presloped pan that can be cut to size.  The pan is then covered with a waterproof fleece membrane that is overlapped on the sides and corners and is directly tiled over.  A proprietary drain system is installed which eliminates the need for a weep hole drain since the pan is waterproofed directly bellow the mortar.  The kerdi method cuts down on installation time and is as durable as a properly installed mud bed.
