Not something I'd tackle & they are having trouble finding a builder
willing to tackle the job as well.

Anyone had ant experience of building one or know of any companies who do?

DIY. Used the correct mortar and spacers and dont forget the
strengthening bars.

I thought they were a bit out-of-date, like gyproc coving ?.

Being 4 inches thick, you do lose some valuable space and
there is still the problem of how to deflect water at the
bottom and edges.

Might be cheaper to price up a sheet of toughened glass
suitably etched.
