Yeah. Right. In your dreams.

(I've fitted three bathrooms so far in my DIY "career".) The shower (*) alone
cost more than a grand in the last two.

(* Pump+valve+enclosure+tray+tiles)


Well who needs a pump?

however, yes, a proper shower + enclosure is around a grand all in.

But the rest can be pretty minimal..I'd say less than a grand,so if you
simply get a bath with a shower tap on it, and rig a sheet of plastic to
it as a shower screen, its possible.

As long as you have mains pressure hot water, anyway.
