Plastic bath panel
Need to fit a plastic bath panel, I know they are a right pain, have fitted a few straight ones where you are able to trim it, but this bath is P shape, and looking at the panel I feel trimming it would be the wrong thing to do. are there any tips on getting the right height ,my idea is to put the bath in but not fix to wall, then ply and tile the floor,and then adjust bath to suite, or am I making hard work for myself.
Any better ideas would be most grateful .
Regards

Re: Plastic bath panel
Measure the bath to sit at 530mm to the bottom of the rim, level it and sit a floor tile in place with a cutting of plywood for the floor and put the bath panel in position, add on the thickness of the tile and plywood and adjust bath height to suit. Keep it dead level though or the curved panel will be a pain.

Re: Plastic bath panel
either do as sys3 says or 1st fix the bath then tile the floor then fit the bath to exact right height for
the panel, making sure its level.
make sure you cover up the floor for the rest of the tiling.
