Question Cutting out of chipboard?

I have never done a wetroom before and now i've got 2 coming up! I have spoken to a few companies and am pretty sorted for what i'm going to do (probably going to order a kit off Wetdecs)

My only concern now is what tool i will need to cut out the floor with? Some sort of circular saw?

Any info would be great Laur

A circular saw or a trim saw will do the job and if you have to get close to the wall a Feinmaster. Remember to set the depth gauge if using a trim or circular saw and have a good recce on where other pipework maybe lurking.......you want a wet room not a water feature.
