Waterproofing really is one of those things you don’t think about until there’s a problem — especially behind tile and around tubs. I learned the hard way that skipping proper membranes or corner sealing can lead to slow leaks that show up months later.

If you’re remodeling in Burlington, it helps to have people who understand local building quirks — I came across general contractors burlington nc while researching, and it reinforced how much prep work matters before any tile goes up. Definitely worth doing it right the first time.
