I've been looking into getting a multi-piece remodel shower kit as a one-piece won't make it through the door. The specific kit I'm looking at is the Sterling Ensemble: https://www.sterlingplumbing.com/ba...Shower-72200100-detail?productNumber=72200100
I have not seen one in person, so I don't know how the walls connect, how well the seams fit and how they prevent leaking. I am planning to install myself as I have already removed the old shower and plumbed in the new shower valve, etc. I have heard a few contractors comment that these kits leak so they won't install them. Are all these types of kits prone to leaking or is there a way to install and be confident it won't leak or a particular brand/model that is better than another?
Please let me know your thoughts/experiences.
Thanks!
