I am fitting a concealed shower on a plaster board wall that I can not get to the back.
The elbow for the hand shower and the outlet pipe for the over head shower need the pipe from the mixer to be attached and the lock nut on the inside of the wall to hold them in place but this need to be done after the tile has been fitted, in which case i cant get to the back of the wall unless I fit the plaster board and tile the wall in stages.
Is it ok to use flex hose and the lock nut just on the back of the tile. This way I can attach the pipe to the elbow and fit it to the tile before the tile is stick to the wall. The only thing I am worried about is that the tile will crack with the weight,
Or has anybody got any better suggestions.
Thanks
