You guys did an amazing job! Really looks great! I get budget, but a full bathroom renovation would of looked outstanding! Not sure if it was the lighting, but that looks like belongs in a full reno.
Very nice job and the panels flow so well. To avoid the nasty taste and likely toxic nature of the caulk I often have a small cup of warm water nearby to dip my finger in.
This is exactly the type of product I was looking for. I’m a 24 year old homeowner in Massachusetts the land of insane tax’s and permits for everything and my bathroom is just flat out depressing to look at knowing I pay 3k a month for it in mortgage payments. So I decided I’d outsource the shower. I got an in home quote and high pressure sales tactics from a woman the same age as my grandmother for $15k. That includes removing my existing tub, the wall around the shower valve and leaving all the existing tile surround on the remaining 2 walls and gluing pvc acrylic panels in. Now I’m back to where I was originally doing it myself and all I could find was junk at the box stores. Ended up with this shower and a glass door for under 3k. Not to mention I’m sure they would’ve fucked it up in some way like everyone else I’ve hired so far.
Excellent video, I really enjoyed it. The only thing I would ask if you do another demo of an old plastic shower insert would be to slow it down and show some of the steps in detail that you did. I am looking at purchasing a home that has those types of showers in them and I would want to take them out myself. But again, great video, keep them coming!
Thank you! I will definitely give that some thought, I always appreciate suggestions on how I can make the videos better. Im hoping very soon we can do another Castico install, and if we do, I will be filming it.
Very helpful video. We've ordered a Castico shower kit & are trying to figure out all the installation details so this really helped. Castico seems to be a very good company & we're looking forward to getting our shower kit completed. Thanks for the video!
Very nice Aaron! A 1pc floor with no tile lippage to trip over,nor thin like it was before. Large flat surfaces,and a drain that are easily cleaned. Am assuming you could cut in a niche easily, but a corner shelf would need a leg. My uncle was in his early 70's when he laid tile in my parents curbless shower. The small tiles all have serious lippage everywhere, including the floor which can be painful. This looks like a well thought out system!
Fantastic installation! I'm researching this because I'm getting ready to remodel my master bathroom. Old showe has leaked and destroyed my subfloor. House is only 15 years old. I would love to use something like this. My only other option is tile. Those are the 2 options i feel comfortable with.
Also just a tip on your holesaw cuts if you go in reverse when cutting holes it won't grab and break your wrist or twist it. Great video though Jay from Tennessee 😎
Ive been remodeling bathrooms since dinosaurs roamed the earth. Ive seen alot of new products come and go. Most end up being a disaster. The rule is….if it relies on some kind of caulk to achieve a waterproof state, its junk and it wont last. This falls into that category. The shower pan lip gets screwed on then caulked into place?!?! Recipe for failure. The two back wall panels were installed with flat butt joints. No caulk went in before installing. So, you add a topping of caulk along this joint to resist water? If you install these, you better be ready to replace the caulk in all these joints every year or two.
Genuine question: So then does that mean all 4 piece kits are not worth it? Since they would all need caulk to achieve a water proof state. Or are there some that don’t require caulking
I have to agree that a topical application of caulk/ silicone is a recipe for failure .. but that’s topical. In the future I would suggest using the silicone at the corners and joints as you install each additional panel. Short version … gloop the bottom and side of the panel as you install it. This will ensure that the entire side and base of each panel is fully sealed all the way through the joints . Not just topically. Although the likelihood of water getting past the wall panels and the backer panels is slim . I still dont like the way the “ flashing “ was attached or where it was attached. It’s like putting the flashing on top of the roof. If they had set the pan first, silicones that , then installed the backer , THEN installed the panels, that would make more sense. I know that some installation methods look really good on paper. I don’t know how long this product has been out , this is my first time seeing it , so I have not read the installation instructions myself. I’m only going by what I heard and watched in the video. Just some thoughts .. Cherrs
This video was super helpful. I'm excited to install this now. Question, on the Goboard are the joints taped? Is it just regular tape and joint compound?
The joints so not have to be taped and we have never taped them! We use white lexel from sashco and embed each sheet into the lexel, then tool a bead on top of that. It's water tight and johns Manville approves that install method.
@@miillersconstruction thanks for the reply. Just finished your other castico video where you had more detail on those steps. You do a great job with your videos, just subscribed.
Great job! If I were having it done, I would have to have a fold-down seat of some sort. Being a woman I like something to sit on while I shave my legs, etc.😉 Thanks for the video.
I have a 2x3 window on the back wall....which panels would have to be cut to fit around the window... What's your thouhts? Great Video.. you're a detail type of guy.. i can tell
Man That's a tough one. I know Castico won't approve of any install with a window involved. It's going to be really hard to finish the raw edges in that situation. Not quite sure what I would do to be honest. Probably tile lol!
@miillersconstruction I believe code only requires a venting system fan.....im thinking just taking window out and using the full panels.....I never open window anyways I have a good fan ..thankyou for the fast response..
Great video! Is the shower door installed on top of the castico shower pan/base? I wasn’t sure if it should be on top of it or but up against it? Thank you
Excellent Job !!!! At first I thought it was Seth McFarland ( voices from The Family Guy) doing the install :) LOL Seriously, excellent product... well done
Did this feel like stone or did it have the plastic feel like some of the other shower walls available? I like the look of this but without seeing it in person, it’s hard to commit to it.
I just bought a Castico shower kit. The pan and walls definitely feel like stone. No plastic feel here. Very very heavy. Be aware, this is not a one man job.
Hi quick question, when it comes to attaching the enclosure, do you have to drill right through the wall boards to what ever is on the other side (plaster/wood etc) I know most of the enclosures weight is supported at the base, just want to make sure it's firmly attached to the wall and won't come off the wall
The waterproofing material is attached directly to the studs. Then the panels are attached to the waterproofing material using thinset or adhesive. Its definately not coming off the wall.
Great question. Currently Castico does not offer a shelf of any kind. So we came up with our own solution, I have a full video with links in the description on what we did to solve this issue. Look for it on my channel. Castico Shelves.
@miillersconstruction I hate corner shelves. I am a big guy and constantly hitting them in the shower lol. I think a prefab niche would probably work out ok as long as carefully lining up the cuts
Is there a reason for using a putty knife instead of a notched trowel to apply thinset? Silicone lasts less than a decade. Does this castico shower pan last less than a decade without leaks? Not a smart ass, genuine questions. If I’m installing tile walls over a castico pan will the bottom tiles fan out because of the drip flange? Does the flange only come to cover the two short walls and one long one?
I’m looking to do this in a 2 year old home. Builder grade shower surround needs to come out. Plumbing is all good. What would be a cost for installation, if I have the Castico walls and base? Thanks
I know that Castico says that you can use construction adhesive with their product. What about the GoBoards backerboards? Can construction adhesive be used to bond the Castico panels to the GoBoards successfully over the long term. I would like to know before I try. Thanks.
They were not specific on their waterproofing substrate. I feel good using the type of construction adhesive we used because we know it sticks tenaciously to GoBoard. We feel good about it.
Hi, thank you for your question. CASTICO Solid Composite Stone adheres with most polyurethane construction adhesives, use the type of adhesive that the manufacturer of the backer board recommends for their material.
@@freshsaltyfries5078 each bathroom will be different. I can't remember how much this one was. I can tell you that the Castico kit itself runs around $2,000
I'm not a master plumber, and I don't like that screw on flange. I've love the style of pan though. @jamessmack do you have an alternative to the screw on flange? I have been looking at various options that stick on.
I'm about to install one of these myself and I have similar reservations. If that silicone bead fails, we have a leak right? What could be done to mitigate that short of using a different shower base entirely?
@@ekallevig it’s not a question of if it’s a question of when will the silicone fail. These guys do great work and say they never had issues but what needs to be understood is a very slow leak like a drip I a couple places will take years to show itself unless it’s on second story. I myself would never use that. Get a good shower base with a molded flange and either buy panels or tile the walls. I’m building a house now and thats (tile) what I’m gonna do
Having issues with the base not having a true pan and only having flanges. Siliconed every crevice inside yet still leaks downstairs and it isn't coming from the drain or showerhead. Plumber told me to never use a base with no full pan. Now it's too late so we keep using more and more silicone trying to find the hole. 😢
@@juliec8119 A step had to of been missed. We have had zero leaks using this system. If you followed the installation instructions, you shouldn't be having any issues. Also I prefer Lexel, not silicone. Have you determined that it's leaking from the flanges and it's definitely not leaking from the drain?
installing this weekend, but just not sure why the flanges are needed. They add 3/16" x 2 to the overall length. Can't we just seal it the same way against the waterproof backerboard just the same without the flange?
I would recommend following the manufacturers instructions on this one. It's very simple to cut the base to whatever length is necessary. I feel like the flanges are an added layer of defense. I see where you're coming from, but the flanges are provided for a reason. I wouldn't feel comfortable not using them.
Thanks for the recommendation. I will start cutting and flanging tomorrow. I was just thinking (maybe over thinking) that it introduces an extra point of failure since we have to silicon it twice now with the flange.
I've had a hard time finding a shower kit that fits my existing footprint of 58 3/4 wide. If the wall kit and/or shower pan measures 60 inches can it be cut down to fit the existing space?
@@pablobaldonado6522 should not be a problem. I think technically they say you can cut up to 1" off of each side, but I don't see an extra ⅛" on top of that being an issue at all. These are really nice units, we love them.
Shower door and stationary glass panel are backward. Now the customer has to fully enter the shower, turn the water on, and brace for that initial blast of cold water they're going to unavoidably get hit with.
Hello and thank you for your question. Yes, it is a composite stone made of a proprietary blend of minerals and resin bound together to create a solid surface that is strong, durable, and lightweight.
@@krtek673 it's a remodel. We don't tear homes apart and cause significant additional expenses because the original light fixture isn't acceptable in today's regulations.
If you never plan on moving, who cares about the property value? If you like it who cares if your kids get a little less in 20-40 years when they sell your house.
I didn't mention anything about kids, so I have no idea what that's all about. Very few people ever plan on leaving their home, but life happens. Always a stupid idea to intentionally reduce the value of one of the largest investments one can make in their lifetime. @@karimbaker9482

Soooooo many steps missing from this video smh.
@@antoineward4475 yes indeed! Smh as well. Why didn't I make the video 10x longer 🤦 SMH
Licking your finger??? Come on, just wet it with water.
Why would anybody spend money to reduce their property value? Going from a full bath down to a 3/4 bath is just stupid.
If you never plan on moving, who cares about the property value? If you like it who cares if your kids get a little less in 20-40 years when they sell your house.
I didn't mention anything about kids, so I have no idea what that's all about. Very few people ever plan on leaving their home, but life happens. Always a stupid idea to intentionally reduce the value of one of the largest investments one can make in their lifetime. @@karimbaker9482
