    The liner has a lip up to go over the bottom flange of the drain which means it will hold water for sure.
    you embedded the hardibacker in the pan material which means the hardibacker will soak up water up the back side of it. The hardibacker will eventually deteriorate.
    If you were to change a little bit of your systems and processes I think you would be a lot better off.

Although I don't exactly agree with everything many if the main tile CZcamsrs do, you can't go wrong watching them. Star tile, landberg tile, tile master Georgia, sal di blasi are all great to learn from, and do things different enough for you to pick a way that works for you, but is also professional and has been tested.

      Many people who watched this video thought that I screwed in the wooden strips to the floor through a pan liner. No, I didn't screw them in because the wood strips were simply lying on the pan liner.
      To remove strips - I screwed the screws in by only half an inch into the wood strip just to wedge the strip out of the concrete pad.

    Wrong. Before that membrane gets laid, a pitch pan is to be set first. Then the membrane gets set on top of it. The drain being used this video has weep holes underneath the collar. That allows anything that should happen to get through the floor tile to eventually drain into the drain. But that won't happen if there's no pitch towards the drain underneath the membrane. You can use a 20 minute drywall mud compound for a quick set underneath the membrane. I do a dry pack on top of the membrane rather than mixing cement. Dry pack consists of one quarter Portland cement, 3 quarter sand. Mix well in a 5 gallon pail or large mixing tote. I use ice cream pails 4 measuring. Spread evenly to your desired level. Compact down with grout float and work around until at least 2 in. Thick make sure it's properly pitched flat and even. Much easier to work with then wet concrete. I then spray the entire surface with a squirt bottle getting everything wet and cover with plastic for 12 hours. At this point the pan should be hard. Allow pan to dry up while working on shower walls.

    Why do you perferate the shower liner around the edges? Why do you not wrap the shower curb? Why don't you use any kind of topical membrane to seal the shower? The hardieboard is water resistant but is not waterproof. It will get saturated. Also. Why do you not slope the curb? Why all the grout lines on the curb. I feel like you are just inviting leaks and saturation. Also, when the next guy comes in to redo the tile job, the homeowner will have to pay $$$ to install a new subfloor since you destroyed it by thinsetting the Hardie back to the subfloor. You are very skilled and seem to take a lot of pride in your work. I have just seen so many disasters, I worry about your clients.

    The weep holes were choked shut with wet concrete. There is a reason you should use dry packed concrete. Water goes through it quickly on its way to the weep holes which should be covered with pea gravel or anything similar. His idea isnt a bad idea for a beginner to help them get a level perimeter but use dry pack concrete. If this is his home then any future problems he can fix. If hes a paid contractor, his shower curb will fail first! No pan covering the top 2x4 and no curb corners at the end. Hopefully he will red guard the hell out of the curb and seat, both of which should have been floated in concrete over metal lath or brick & mortar overlaid in concrete which is best since no nails or screws are needed.
