RE: Renovations update - building my space

Oh, You have problems with moisture, also being a single brick thick , the problems will be there too.
I suggest you applies some Tar paint outside the brick from ground level to about a foot height.
That will stop the water from soaking upwards. ( Here, we use proper water proof membrane, which comes in a paint form to apply )
Looks like you going to Tiles the shower areas, put some of the Tar paint where the shower cubical.
Do it properly and Do it once only.

Yea I heard about that waterproof paint, thanks for the reminder ;) . Ya I'm going to tiles from floor to 3 foot height. I definitely do it once , not gonna spending too much on something cost me more money haha.

Here, An Example for you. The cubical , generally waterproof to 1.8 meter height including the flooring as well. Just like a fish pond. If you look carefully the flooring is recess. That piece of wood on the floor is 2 x 2. I haven't gone to that DIY topic to write just yet.
What I can tell you is that my portfolio is huge. Currently on The Culinary Classes for beginner.
Here, is a photo for you to look at #howto

Take noted on that one, thank you so much for the tips.
