Originally posted by Chuck_Finley View PostOk since I am planning to attempt to tackle something similar next year (which may end up with me hiring someone anyway), one thing I wanted to do to my shower is remove the curb. I noticed yours is probably 6" inches high more or less. Before you put the curb in, was your floor completely level with the shower pan? If you didn't have a curb would it have still drained properly?
One thing I'd like to try and do during my remodel is try for a curbless shower, but the leveling I know will have to be just right. Have you done this type of remodeling before? Any recommendations on books or videos to watch?

Originally posted by 8mpg View Postlike above, search the john bridge forum. Tons of tiling advice. A curbless shower will need to have the floor recessed. You need a 1/4" per foot drop towards the drain. Even with a linear drain at the door, you will need pitch. Having a concrete foundation will kill the costs of curbless

Originally posted by Chuck_Finley View PostYep, I have a concrete slab so I have no idea if the cost would skyrocket because of it. At the very least, minimal curb is preferable. Why not just tile right over the shower pan to minimize curb? Oh well I'll ask questions on that linked forum. Thanks

We actually had been using the shower without the wall, and just beside the blocks were the wet parts. Looks like just a few drops will actually make it beyond the wall which is nothing. You really do not splash as much as you would think, being a rain shower helps that i am sure and also that the handheld is aimed toward the back side of the tub.
