Full tile wet floor,hinged glass between toilet and shower,tile walls.
Like?ish.

Take that sucker
Collateral damage

If you are putting a bath (or a shower tray) in , here's a tip

Once it is all connected up and doesn't leak and before you put the front panel on, fill it with water and spray expanding foam underneath. Let it set overnight and when set it will support your weight evenly and not squeak

The best bathroom reno takes place when there is a spare bathroom to use in the meantime..

Are you doing the whole job yourself ?

How went the OFTH?
PET showed scaring nothing nasty.

Just bought a shower mixer,$287,I asked where's the shower bit,thats another $229 faaaark,got a free pizza but

before you line the walls put in heaps of fixings for toilet roll holders,towel rails,shower doors etc. then draw a map of all the fixings ,studs and dwangs on every wall. only takes a sec , and it helps when you decide later to mount some extra stuff on the wall. pretty much every bathroom I do has something extra chucked on the wall as an afterthought.

Or just line the walls with treated 12mm ply so wherever you want to put a screw there is a more solid wall - I've done that to bathrooms and kitchens
