Fitting electric shower to uneven wall

[Removables]

Hi,

I've recently finished tiling my bathroom with metro tiles. I'm now trying to refit the electric shower but face a problem: the wall is uneven so when I offer the shower up, I'm left with a gap of around 3/4" - 1" on one of the sides.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can try and fill this / apply some thing the shower can attach to?

Any ideas would be really appreciated.

Cheers.

That is a big gap considering the size of a Shower Unit,

Is it a problem because of the Pipework ?????

Is it a problem because of the Pipework, the wall cant be that much out of true if you have got the Tiles on. ?????

Yes - the positioning of the pipework means it has to be fitted in this place. Believe me, the wall is really uneven, but we didn't have any issues getting the tiles on though.

Any ideas on what I could do?
