Fitting synthetic marble shower base.

I'll also have to check 20mm into the bottom plate of the wall frame so the panelling comes down inside the rim of the shower base. Also possible, but a bit of a pain.

I'm thinking it might be quicker and less drama to raise the base, but I see the potential for water under the base. This incidentally is why I have to do the job—I'm thinking it might be quicker and less drama toraise the base, but I see the potential for water under the base. This incidentally is why I have to do the job—long term leaking had rotted the bottom plates and the bottom 18" of half a dozen studs not only around the shower but extending 8' along two adjoining walls.:eek:

If you've got that much damage to fix, which will mean replacing all the waterproofing, I'd rethink the entire job. It might be easiest to just redo the entire bathroom from the motar bed up.
