have any of you plumbing experts out there ever fitted a free-standing shower cubicle(just requires wall behind) as my plumber is reacting as though i have asked him to fit the tardis in my bathroom (which i suppose it is in a way) anyway he has apparently never even heard of them before,let alone fitted one. also,anyone know of any silicone free sealers?

there are acrylic sealers, oil based mastics, solvent based gripfill types, sticks like sh*t.

what type are you looking for?

if you want one that stays pliable, then an oil based mastic should do it.
 
not really looking for one that stays pliable.just something to seal around the waste (our plumber tells us this is vital),from the shower to the drain.it is in a downstairs room with a tiled floor,so we are less bothered about the odd drip than he is.still,it is good that he is so particular.

Yes.

Depending on the make and model, it can be a very unpleasant job.

Yes.
