Hi
im going to tile two walls over a stone reisin shower tray
the shower surround isnt fitted and isnt on site.
do i tile to the outside edge of shower tray and install the shower
enclosure on the tile'( if so what will i use on the edge of tiles
that shows outside shower enclosure)
or do i keep back a bit from the edge (maybe an inch) and fit the
shower enclosure onto the wall and seal between the tile the inside
edge of the enclosure.
the rest of the room will not be tiled just the shower.

Tile out to the edge of the enclosure frame, then you have something
decent to bed the enclosure against. In fact ISTR from my installation
instructions that you are supposed to have the sealant on the outside
edge of the enclosure, but not the inside or somesuch?

Hiding the edge of the tiles is easy enough. I used a chrome finish tile
trim stuck on, alternatives would be a bit of wooden bead,
painted/stained or a bit of upvc bead /trim - exactly what depends on
the overall finish of the bathroom
