Water Resistant vs. Waterproof

One of our main goals at Carpetstretcher.net is to make sure that our customers are well informed about the products they are purchasing.  Today, we want to inform all of you about the difference between water resistant and waterproof...and yes...there is quite a difference.

When it comes to tile showers, you are most likely going to be dealing with some type of cement board.  Cement board is water resistant...not waterproof.  Therefore, if you were to tile directly to the cement board, you are just asking for mold and mildew problems down the road.  To avoid these problems, you will need to make sure that your shower is waterproof.  How do you waterproof your showers?  We have a product available on Carpetstretcher.net called Aqua Shield.  Aqua Shield is a waterproofing membrane that can be installed right over your cement board, and then tiled to.  By using Aqua Shield, you have created a water tight shower assembly that will not leak.

Crain Jamb Saw

The versatile Crain Jamb Saw undercuts along walls, door jambs, under toe spaces, and will also fully undercut inside corners. The height of cut is easily adjustable from flush to one inch above the floor. The large, flat base prevents tipping and assures accurate, level cutting. The dual-angle depth gauge is a Crain exclusive and allows undercutting at a “straight-on” or a 45° angle. A visual adjustment scale provides precision depth control at 1/8" increments.

Each Crain Multi-Undercut Jamb Saw comes with a 36-tooth No. 556 Carbide Blade. The blade is bell-shaped for added rigidity and should not be used on any other saw. The jamb saw also comes with a custom molded carrying case and a spanner wrench for blade removal. Now that's a lot in one package.
