A 10mm toughened safety glass at a length of 1200mm W x 1950mm H being around $500. You could install it yourself, but installation is $200. You just have to make sure you get the tiling right so the flow of water runs back into a shower grate. cheers Craig Re: Walk in (open) shower 55Nov 05, 2014 10:45 am I want these in my new build, but I was told it is a good idea to have pan under the tiles as water can get thru(2nd story). also insurance companies are not insuring houses if they are not done in this way. Is this true or total baloney! mixo Re: Walk in (open) shower 56Nov 05, 2014 12:01 pm Sounds like bulldust to me. Pan ??? You definitely need a waterproof membrane in your upstairs bathroom area though for it to comply with regs. Maybe this is what you are talking about or whether this is what the other person means? Stewie Re: Walk in (open) shower 57Nov 05, 2014 12:03 pm Mate I doubt very much if that is true, shower bases really are a thing of the past now. If you use a good water proofer you will get a certificate for his work. Whether or not it 2nd story or ground floor, you dont want it to leak. cheers Craig Re: Walk in (open) shower 58Nov 05, 2014 2:04 pm I just shared this in another bathroom thread but forgot this one existed!

The flexible membrane is the best and most reliable waterproofing around. Pans are cheap and easy for the builder to install themselves. This bathroom is 2nd story and we just used the flexible membrane. http://i1275.photobucket.com/albums/y451/Antekindustries/DarkTiles2_zps746f9b39.jpg Electrical just got back to me and said the most they can provide is a single power point on the Bedroom 1 side of that wall.
