Welcome, Russ. :)

Looks like you got missed with your first post. Sorry about that.

Welcome, Ryan. :)

I'd also like to know what sort of areas in a shower would still have exposed RedGard after four years. Product manufacturer would not want you should do that.

It's OK with me, Sarah, but I own no stock in your insurance company. And I assure you they know exactly what's required for your installation. Problem is they won't look it up or tell you that...

Welcome, Susanne. :)
