@homeloveconstruction: Shower curb: “I am SOLID CONCRETE.” Brad: “Love that.” Wood stud touching it: “Should I be nervous?” 😭😂 This cast-in-place shower sill is a pretty uncommon way to build a curb, but Brad actually really likes the idea. It’s solid. It’s substantial. And it’s definitely not going anywhere. 👏 The concern? The wood sitting directly beside it. Concrete can contain and transfer moisture, and untreated framing isn’t exactly the material Brad wants hanging out next to that long-term. That moisture can contribute to darkening, deterioration, or unwanted growth on the wood. So if you’re pouring a concrete shower sill? Brad’s recommendation is to plan the surrounding framing accordingly and use pressure-treated material where appropriate. It’s one of those details that’s easy to miss because everybody is staring at the impressive concrete curb. Brad: “Great curb. Now let’s protect everything TOUCHING it.” 😂 For shower remodeling, bathroom renovations, waterproofing, framing, additions, and whole-home projects throughout Tampa, Clearwater, Dunedin, Safety Harbor, and Tampa Bay, Home Love Construction knows durability isn’t just about building something strong—it’s about making sure the materials around it can handle the environment too. #bathroom #Basic #didyouknow #tampa
