What are the waterproofing requirements for natural stone showers?

Waterproofing for natural stone showers is essential to prevent moisture penetration and mold growth. A continuous waterproof membrane must be installed behind the stone, extending from the shower pan up the walls. All seams and penetrations should be properly sealed, and a sloped subfloor is necessary for drainage.
