        "text": "A professional waterproofing process begins with framing inspection and installing moisture-resistant backer board, such as cement board or foam building panels. Next, installers seal all fastener penetrations, wall joints, and internal corners using alkaline-resistant mesh tape and waterproofing sealant. A continuous membrane—either sheet or liquid—is applied across the shower pan, bench surfaces, shower niches, and up the wet-area walls. Before any decorative tile goes down, a licensed remodeler performs a flood test by plugging the drain and filling the shower base with water for 24 hours to confirm total watertight integrity.",
