1.2 - Shower Pans: How To Make & Why They Suck (Full Episode) - Martin Haddock | Da Vinci Concrete

  • Summary

  • How do you make a concrete shower pan? Is it worth it? What are some things you should be mindful of when making them. Because these questions and more pop up in the Facebook forums from time to time we figured doing an episode on it would help. This is the full episode with all the tangents and what nots.
