Can we talk about how skipping the cement board on my tub surround came back 4 years later
Everyone on here says just glue the surround panels straight to the drywall if the seams are tight, and I went along with that on my own upstairs bath in Garland back in 2020 to save a Sunday. Pulled the panel off last month because of a soft spot by the faucet, and the drywall behind it was crumbly and black across a 2 foot patch, all from water sneaking past the caulk line. Cost me around $340 in new board, screws and membrane, plus two weekends I could have spent on the deck. So what do you all do at the tub lip, because taping and mudding that corner is the part I hate most?
