Spent all our money, can't afford to get someone to come and do the tiling, so planning on doing it myself. We were planning an electric shower (wiring and plumbing in place) in a 780ish wide alcove, so thinking 760 wide tray, with metro tiles on three walls and a shower door. Do we need to tank the walls first? Buy a shower tray with an upstand and tile over it? I'm guessing we need to take off the skirting that's inexplicably gone on in that alcove. Obviously I don't want it to leak everywhere and I'm a bit paranoid.
Idea was that I would do the tiling and fit the tray and then get a plumber/electrician to fit the electric shower. Which should it be? And Would they prefer to fit over the tiles or for me to leave a sort of gap?
