I am about to remodel a bathroom and wanted some opinions on tub/shower inserts. The current bathroom has a tub but no shower head, and sheet rock from the tub to the ceiling. It also has a 2'X2' window centered in the wall above the tub. I plan to take out the sheet rock, run a pipe and shower head, then put up cement backerboard in place of the sheet rock all around.
I'd rather not tile the walls around the tub and I'd like to put in an insert that replicates tile. They're inexpensive and seem durable, but I don't have experience with them. Are they recommended? I'm also wondering if it's possible to cut out a window in the insert and get waterproof trim (vinyl?) for the current window, or do I need to eliminate the window all together?
This is a great forum and I appreciate the help!
