Hi,
I've recently ripped out a full bathroom and am replacing it with new everything. The old bath was P shaped with a fixed shower head coming from the wall. I've replaced the mixer shower but the dimensions of the new shower were identical to the old so the pipework was in the correct place. I put the new L-shaped bath into place last night and realised it's slightly narrower than the old bath so the shower is no longer in the centre and too close to the glass screen for my liking. If I had noticed earlier I could've altered the copper pipe for the shower, but I've already tiled that area in.

I have 2 options.
Option 1, try to remove 2 tiles covering the top of the shower pipe (without causing a load damage to plasterboard & other tiles), extend into the loft then have a shower head coming from the ceiling.
Option 2, find a fixed shower arm that has a pivot on it so I can direct it to the centre of the bath.

Suggestions welcome.

Thank you.
 
i once had a customer who asked for it to be off set to the side, so i asked ?,
simple he said i can then soap up and scrub of the sh** when i get home then move over and shower off,
well i did ask LOL.

I was stupid enough not to check the position of the pipes under the tiles when installing a toilet and drilled right through the center of a 16 mm copper water pipe. I exposed the pipe by removing a ~30cm section of the plastic sleeve and a ~10 cm section of the pipe around the hole. Several...
