Hi all,

before purchasing, I want to know the contents of a BAL tanking kit, and if one kit will be enough for my 1400 x 800 (3 wall) shower enclosure?

Sorry, but I couldn't find this info online.

I also want to know what I should be doing between the tiles and tray. Do I need a seal? Is there one in the kit? These are Laura ashley tiles... I'm not keen on setting them next to a PVC seal.

Thanks for all advice :)
 
Yes there will be enough to tape all the corners and coat the sides.

Tank the wall to lower than the top of the tray, when you set the tray in place put plenty of mastic on the sides so it sticks to the tanked wall, run a bead of silicon between tanking and top of tray. After tiling and grouting run another small bead of silicon between tile & tray.
