shower room

[brendanbreeze]

Hello all,

Just a quick question...I'm tiling a shower room next week which at the moment just consists of bare plastered walls and an unfitted shower tray in one corner.

My question is this. Is it ok to tile right to the floor behind the shower tray or should I be tiling to the top?

Thanks for reading - Brendan

depends on the positioning of the waste and the style of trap your going to use! its not the sort of thing you can advise without seeing the room to many variables like does the waste run under the floor or above the floor?

Thank's for all the advise. I'm not due to start the job for a week so I think I'll take the easy route and send them a text/email explaining that the tray wiil need to be fitted before I can start.

Thanks again - Brendan

Either way if you go for tray in first or not I would build the cubicle up and position in place to see if the clearances are ok. had a shower to do not so long ago. Followed manufacturers guidelines and when come to fit cubicle it overhung the tray at the front. At that stage its too late for excuses. So I would say wether you tile first or tray first then tile, make sure the cubicle fits.
