Schluter®-KERDI Waterproofing Systems

The Foundation of a Leak-Proof Shower

At EZ Bath, great design means nothing without great construction behind it.
That’s why we use the Schluter®-KERDI system — the gold standard in waterproofing for tile showers.
When you see “installed with Schluter®,” it means your shower was built the right way — watertight, mold-resistant, and engineered to last a lifetime.

What Is Schluter®-KERDI?

Schluter®-KERDI is a bonded waterproofing membrane made of polyethylene with a fleece webbing on both sides.
It’s applied behind your tile to create a completely sealed, vapor-tight barrier, protecting your home from leaks, rot, and mold growth.

Simply put: it’s what separates a beautiful tile shower from a bulletproof one.

Used in every high-quality tile shower we build, Schluter®-KERDI provides:

• Complete waterproof protection beneath your tile and mortar.

• Mold and mildew prevention by blocking moisture penetration.

• Long-term stability — no cracking, warping, or delamination.

• Perfect compatibility with tile, stone, and other shower materials.

• Peace of mind backed by Schluter’s proven track record and warranty.

Why EZ Bath Uses Schluter®-KERDI

We don’t gamble with moisture. Water damage is the #1 cause of shower failure, and most of it comes from improper waterproofing — not the tile itself.
That’s why every EZ Bath tile shower starts with a full Schluter®-KERDI system, installed by trained professionals who follow manufacturer specifications down to the millimeter.

Our method includes:

1. KERDI Board or membrane installed over walls and benches.

2. KERDI Drain System with integrated waterproofing flange.

3. Seam sealing with KERDI-BAND for a 100% continuous barrier.

4. Precision tile installation over the cured membrane system.

No shortcuts. No leaks. No callbacks.

The Science Behind the System

Unlike traditional shower builds that rely on cement board and vapor barriers, KERDI is a direct-bonded waterproofing system — meaning the membrane sits directly under your tile, not behind it.
This eliminates moisture absorption and drastically reduces drying times, keeping your shower cleaner, safer, and longer-lasting.

KERDI Advantages Over Traditional Methods:

• Zero moisture migration into walls or subfloor.

• Faster installation with less risk of error.

• Compatible with electric floor heating and linear drains.

• Certified and code-compliant across North America.

It’s the kind of technology you’ll never see — but will be glad you invested in every day.
