I am using 6 X 6 natural stone tile for shower, tiling from floor to ceiling. I installed Durock cement board with no vinyl behind it; I will be applying Redguard directly to cement board. I have three questions...1. I am installing a recessed niche in the rear wall of the shower, and want to know if I can Redguard over a portion of the cement board below the niche, install a couple of rows of tile, and then build the frame for the niche (allowing for the thickness of cement board installed over it), install the rest of the cement board, and then Redguard the rest.
2. Does the outline of the niche need to be exactly on the grout lines side-to-side and top-to-bottom?
And 3. I see photos of finished showers, and there are no grout lines in the corners. Can someone explain why?
It isn't done yet in the photo, but the seams and corners will be taped and mudded with thin set.
