Never skip waterproofing
Waterproofing (₹70–₹180/sqft) is the single most important step. Skipping it to save ₹5,000–₹10,000 leads to seepage, mould, and structural damage that costs ₹50,000–₹2,00,000 to fix. Two coats of Dr Fixit LW+ or Fosroc Nitoproof 600 is the standard. Allow 48–72 hours curing between coats and before tiling.
