Hi I'm looking for a bit of advice, what I'm doing is creating a little box section to fill the gap between the end of my bath and the wall, the space is about 200mm x 700mm so as you can see there isn't much room to move there. So I've cut all my pieces and everything looks good so the problem I have is attaching the wooden supports for the top and side pieces to the tiles there is a big lip on the end of the bath so the other side can sit on that. I can't drill straight through the wood or tiles as there is no room to get the drill in. Do you think it would be ok to drill through at an angle or should I use something like no nails to glue it on or is there something else I can do, any advice is appreciated

As long as no heavy weight will be put on the area then you can use gripfill/no nails, just make sure it is supported while it goes off. Wait for 24hrs.

Make a stud frame then slot it into place and mechanically fix it to the floor and glue it to the wall.

You build a frame as mentioned and secure to wall at bottom under bath to flank wall and floor and at top as it should be higher than the bath, infills meeting level just cause trouble and leak you need a 90degree angle to seal .
