It\u2019s a great book and I feel much more confident now in installing the membrane liner. I also noticed while reading your Ebook that you recommend using Durock for a cement backer board on the shower walls. I did have a question for you on this subject. I was wondering about your thoughts on using Hardie backer board versus Durock cement backer board? Also what do you recommend for a backer board on the shower ceiling?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Answer:<\/strong> D.G. Glad to hear you\u2019ve learned a lot from my \u201cHow to Install a Shower Membrane Liner\u201d Ebook. I get that feedback regularly on the Ebook.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>I\u2019ve used the same process for installing a shower pan membrane liner in all of my custom ceramic tile shower projects and have never had a leak.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\">In regards to using Durock cement backer board versus Hardie backer board. Either will work, however I just personally feel that Durock cement backer board is more water resistant. Many professional tile installers say positive things about Hardie backer board so I can\u2019t say it\u2019s a bad product.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s just that I\u2019ve always used Durock cement backer board and am very comfortable and confident in using it. I\u2019ve heard Hardie backer board is easier to cut\/score and snap than Durock cement backer board, however I\u2019ve never had a problem scoring\/snapping Durock. Note, I don\u2019t recommend cutting cement backer board with a power tool saw. If you elect to do so I would highly suggest wearing a mask when cutting it. You don\u2019t want to breathe in the silica dust.<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"47%\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3200\" src=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Shower-Pane-Membrane-Liner-Installation-Ebook-218x300.jpg\" alt=\"How to Install a Mortar Shower Pan Membrane Liner eBook.\" width=\"218\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Shower-Pane-Membrane-Liner-Installation-Ebook-218x300.jpg 218w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Shower-Pane-Membrane-Liner-Installation-Ebook-768x1056.jpg 768w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Shower-Pane-Membrane-Liner-Installation-Ebook-745x1024.jpg 745w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Shower-Pane-Membrane-Liner-Installation-Ebook.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 218px) 100vw, 218px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>In regards to the shower ceiling and backer board, I\u2019ve typically used green board sheathing and simply textured\/painted the ceiling.<\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\">Green board sheathing is a water resistant gypsum product that works well in high moisture areas. It is commonly used in bathrooms as an alternative to standard gypsum drywall board. If your shower ceilings are relatively low, or you plan to tile the shower ceiling, then I would suggest using either Hardie or Durock backer board on it as well. With either of these products you can paint or texture the finish to get a finished looking ceiling.<\/p>\n<p>Make sure, however, to tape the seams with thinset mortar and an alkali resistant tape before finishing the ceiling. Also make sure to do the same on the shower walls prior to tiling them.<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"47%\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3318\" src=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Taped_Backer_Board-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Taped cement backer board\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Taped_Backer_Board-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/Taped_Backer_Board.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #008000; font-size: large;\">For information on installing a shower pan membrane liner for a ceramic tile shower<\/span><\/strong>, see the <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/ebooks\/shower-pan-membrane-ebook\/\">Shower Pan Membrane Liner Installation Ebook<\/a><\/strong><\/span> from HomeAdditionPlus.com.\u00a0 The Shower Pan Membrane Liner EBook will quickly teach you the step-by-step process for installing the shower pan membrane liner correctly.
