Waterproofing & steam-proofing this extraordinary bathroom | Crafted by NS Builders

Nick Schiffer walks us through this epic bathroom renovation just outside of Boston. The client had incredibly high expectations and wanted to transform their bathroom into a high-end spa. This primary suite bathroom includes a waterproof and steam proof "wet room" with giant slab tiles. We walk you through the steps we took to make this room beautiful and functional.

No wonder I couldn't find any Kerdi-band lately, you guys used it all! Lol! Beauty work

[anthonys]

Lol glad you mentioned the window deconstruction right after. I was saying to myself, “Man if a window breaks it’s gonna take almost as much work as the bathroom entirely lol. Made for elegance not repairable attribute for sure 💎

I can't thank you enough for the effort you put into your videos and your work. I am an architect (lowercase a) and found it difficult to find people who care as much about the details as I do - even amongst the people I work with.
You appear to care about them a lot - it shows. Hopefully one day I get to work with a builder(or for one) that thinks like you and understands that there needs to be no stone left unturned if you want to have a "perfect" product.

Wow that is perfect craftsmanship you are very lucky to have customers with pockets for that!

[armandonunez]

The level of craftsmanship and execution on this job was crazy good. I bet the budget for that thing was the cost of my home lol

[envy]

Please dont ever stop documenting your projects

[thomasnoe]

WOW love the tile detail around the windows. That’s the type of tile work you see in a cathedral!

[jessegriffin]

This type of Site cleanliness is every homeowner dream. Those builders deserve a medal.

Glad you broke down the process with this project. Not many people understand the thought and planning that goes into something like that, it's really impressive. Takes a lot of smart talented people to pull it off...well done.

[gesamtpaket]

What a great step by step video. Thank you for taking the time to explain all the details.

[mohammedelsayed]

i applaud you guys for doing the work as it should be done and that's why the majority of us as viewers are amazed. every construction job should be done with this level of thought and attention to detail. the extra applause goes to the lunatic who designed this masterpiece.
