Check the plumbing
Get pipes and joints checked before waterproofing.
- 2
Waterproof under the tiles
Remove tiles where needed and apply a waterproof membrane on floors and the lower walls.

Fix tiles with adhesive
Use a polymer tile adhesive, not plain cement, so tiles sit firm.

Epoxy grout does not let water through and stays clean.
