My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

WEDI vs. Kerdi systems

18 years ago

STILL in planning stages of new master bath--haven't hired anyone yet but interviewing. Anyway, I thought I wanted the Kerdi system but then just learned about WEDI. Anyone know the differences? (Cost differences, effectiveness, risks,benefits, etc?).

tom-p-pa had posted that WEDI is less "proven" and shaughnn indicated some issues in his Nov 9 07 posting. (Need to allow the coating a week to cure, and could be environmental gasses from styrofoam product, and heat vulnerability when solder pipe fittings).

Anyone else with experience or views?

I'm tempted to stick with Kerdi/Schu....however spell it, but one tiler insisted that WEDI was FAR superior.
