MORE AFFORDABLE GREEN ALTERNATIVE - Your Bathroom Solution - Bathtub and shower waterproofing protection at the more affordable price. Saving time and money on remodels and renovations for both contractors and diy-ers. Reaching the entire US in just 4 business days Trugard Direct has some of the best shipping times in this market.ONLY PRODUCT TO GUARANTEE A WATERTIGHT SEAL - Bonded polyethylene is what our product is made of. Other companies like Schluter Kerdi, Noble Company, and DUROCK also use this bonded polyethylene membrane to waterproof tile shower stalls. That is because when bonded polyethylene is out of direct sunlight, scientists can only estimate that the product won't decay for 500 to 1000 years! Thanks science!
CUT INSTALLATION TIME IN HALF - Very Easy To Install - Other products require days of prep and drying times. Trugard waterproofing membrane can be installed and ready for tile within 1 day. Traditional shower pan liner systems can take weeks to complete and though they may be cheap, you're likely to replace them in 10 to 15 years because of leaks and mold!

You will never talk to an automated voice and we do pretty much anything to make sure you are happy with the product and help you get your dream bathroom properly installed.
FULLY COMPATABLE - Quick To Answer Questions - One question we get all the time is, "Can I use the kerdi membrane with your products?" ABSOLUTELY, YES! Trugard is compatible with all Schluter Kerdi products. However, Schluter will not honor it's product warranty if you use a different product with theirs. Good thing we fully warranty it anyway!
