    Just tile as normal and install box after completion. No need for tanking IMO. I don't do it when I install them...

    you can't ring out, but if the phone rings in it switches the shower off so you can answer it. i'd rather have a shower in peace and return the call when i finished

    the whole enclosure was a grand, not bad considering you'd pay near that for a normal shower tray, enclosure and shower bar etc. this one's a steam room too
