i have a shower tray to fit in my bathroom,its in place and the 2 walls that it fits against are pretty square,a couple of questions for you
1.do i tile from the tray up,or run the tiles behind down to the floor?
2.i have been provided with a tray to wall seal which is a nice fit,it pushes down between tray and wall,only problem is its clear,and when offering a tile up to the tray you can just see it sticking out,do i silicone it in place and live with the piece showing(its not much) or not use it and try to create a seal with silicone,the tray has a slight lip around the edge to deflect water

i want to try and stay away from the tile edging you put under the tiles and create a lip because it looks hideous,any feedback is appreciated

Tile onto the tray, not behind it.
I'd fill the tray/wall gap with silicone.
I agree, those under tile strips look dire.
Are you tanking the walls?

when sealing the base kneel in the tray for weight , then use sealant ;)
 
Can I ask a stupid question? When you ask about tanking the walls, what do you mean? Is this something I should be doing (about to fit our new shower enclosure)?

Thanks
Nim
