    When you tile the window area, don't forget to slope the tiles into the shower so the water doesn't pool or get between the window and the wall.

    It's a Schluter soap niche so sloping doesn't need to be steep. Between that and the red guard your golden.

    I was thinking he was talking about the window.

    I don't think the window will be much of a problem either though, with the red guard and the fact that it'll still be above the shower head. And I sealed all the gaps with thinset before the redguard.

    25 years of building houses and dealing with warranty claims along with that... believe me, I know.

    I lived in a condo for a while. Every unit in the stack I was in had the patio replaced and about a 1/3 of the way in to each unit all because the 4th floor unit patio leaked-poor workmanship. They had chosen to install a fairly new (at the time) product and not installed it properly and not allowed for the patios to drain properly.

    Each of the four units required a 3 day period to repair. During the process, I learned how ineffective the HOA was. Never again.
