Fit shower panels. They're made of wood! Slot into a plastic holder & are glued to the wall. Not bad to fit fit impossible alone, need two people
Shower cubicle fitted
Basin fitted
My mate finished the outside stack & he'll return tomorrow afternoon to fit toilet & silicone up.

Pipes weren't sleeved. They weren't covered in mortar just a wooden shower board.

Ah right, post up with how you are finding the gas course. I for one would be interested to hear how you are getting on.

yes, nice work rocky, just one thing I'd mention, I see you've used FIx15mm elbows at the top, I would use endfeed elbows and after the tiling has been done I'd use these www.screwfix.com/p/swirl-bar-valve-wall-mount-fixing-kit-chrome-plated/8669h if its a bar shower, If its not a bar shower you just need to cut the copper to the lenght to suit the shower valve and they'll slide right in, most are 150mm aprt, hope that helps rocky, |

Cheers Tom
The ISO coming out the wall were take off. We just put the on so we could keep water on. The shower adjustable were taped up & screwed into the elbows. All good.

Nice job coming along there rocky.
A lot of hard work though in these sty filing conditions we're currently experiencing.
Those panels are quite expensive (very fashionable), but hey do save you a lot of work tiling.
Tappy,

I like tiles The issue that we found is when you glue the wall, with basically grab fill, you need loads all over otherwise the board flexes where there are gaps. It was a first so maybe they'll grow on me |
