Shower Floor Installation Services in Orlando, Florida
Shower floor installation requires precision waterproofing and proper substrate preparation to prevent costly water damage to the substructure below. At Renovating Central Florida LLC, we handle all shower floor installations with industry-standard materials including Schluter Systems waterproofing membranes, modified thin-set mortar, and premium grout products. Serving Orlando, Kissimmee, Sanford, Winter Park, and the surrounding central Florida region, we assess your existing shower pan, remove damaged materials if necessary, and install your new shower floor with complete protection against moisture infiltration.
Our shower floor installation process begins with site inspection and material selection during your consultation at your Orlando-area home. We then prepare the substrate by removing old flooring if needed, repairing any structural damage, and installing a waterproof membrane rated for wet environments. Next, we apply thin-set mortar and lay your chosen tile or stone material in a proper slope toward the drain, typically 1/8-inch per foot for optimal water drainage. After 24-48 hours of curing, we apply waterproof grout sealant and final caulking around fixtures. The entire process takes 2-4 business days depending on square footage and material complexity.
