Showerthought: My bathroom tile job almost flooded the kitchen below.

Was setting subway tile in my upstairs bathroom in Akron. Used a cheap trowel from the big box store, notched the thinset wrong. Next morning, water seeped through the grout lines during a shower test. Had to pull off 15 tiles, redo the waterproofing with RedGard. Anyone know a better method for a wet wall?

Didn't a buddy of yours have that same leaky tile problem?

That RedGard fix is a real pain to do after the fact.
