Matt Risinger explores a Boston-area project featuring a custom-fabricated copper shower pan designed for extreme longevity—potentially over a century. Made by Hall Custom Builders, the pan is constructed from thick copper with soldered and folded seams, tailored to the specific shower layout. A brass fitting with weep holes connects to the PVC drain, enabling water to escape beneath a sloped mortar bed. Above the mortar, multiple layers of waterproofing like Hydro Ban ensure further protection. Cement board walls and a concrete curb complete the setup. Matt admires the craftsmanship and durability, comparing it to century-old systems that still kept wood dry.
