Hello, how do I go about tiling this area (photos attached)? I need to tile it before the fitter returns.
The panel is screwed on but hasn't been plastered. Do I need to level it up with filler? How do I tile around the gaps near the valve? I am concerned about it being waterproof.
Thanks, Jim

So before I can tile my builder needs to finish off the wall first!! I will have a word.
Many thanks. I will look into the tiling, I think I might be able to diy it.

Don't forget to waterproof the shower wall prior to tiling.
You can purchase proprietary shower tanking kits, with everything needed to waterproof the shower walls.
