Waterproofing your tub or shower surround before tiling is actually pretty easy. First-time homeowners Jessell and Andrew show you how to do it with cement backer board and waterproof sealer.
"It's extremely important to waterproof before installing tile to ensure water doesn't seep through the grout and cause water damage or mold," explains Andrew.
Once the waterproof sealer is dry, you're ready to apply your mortar and start installing your tile.
