Schluter KERDI-Band - 5 X 165

First of all, I bought this after watching a YouTube video about how to waterproof a bathroom wall next to a shower. Since the damage occurred after only a 2 year old bathroom reno, I had to put up something I wouldnt have to repair every 2 years. The YouTube video prescribed putting down a layer of thin-set, cutting the Kerdi-band to fit the space, laying it into the thin-set, allowing to dry completely and then fill in with joint compound, painting with Kilz 3 primer because it has more water proofing, and then painting. Im not a professional, and this took time but the install went really well! I recommend Schluters Kerdi-Band for waterproofing!

Great product, good price

As expected. This is for use with the Kerdi system.

Just what I needed for my shower project. Easy to work with.

Very easy to install with the right mortar. Goes on easily and now my bathtub wall is waterproof and mildew/mold free!

I know this stuff is expensive but I think its worth it for piece of mind. Im a DIYer and didnt have any problem installing. Went whole hog and bought the kit that includes the shower curb, shower pan and all the sheets and bands that were needed. I have to admit that my first batch of thin-set was too thick and skinned over before I could put up the first 4 sheet of Kerdi sheeting so I had to take it down, scrap the wall of thin-set and do it over. Remember to use unmodified thin-set everyone!

It is a bit more expensive than other methods to use for bathroom infrastructure, but they are quality products.

This stuff is awesome, the test will be how long it lasts

Schluter Kerdi products work great! The special fit products like this make the job easier. We were tiling a shower in the basement. This is the first time we bought the special sized pieces - had tried to cut the main piece to fit in the past. By using this, it went faster, was neater and in my opinion will be less likely to have any problems with moisture.

Arrived as described. Actual Kerdi band.
