Hello,
I am looking for some suggestions on how to do an arch in shower. Side facing out is to be sheetrock, side facing in is to be tile. Bottom of arch to be tile also. How in the world am I going to finish off where tile meets sheetrock in an arch???? This would be the side facing outward and most noticeable in arch.

Help!

I gather you are over the pond, with terminology.. So welcome to tilers forums..

Are you going to water proof this sheetrock area as well..?

Do you intend to tile the inner arch..?

I read as the inner would be tiled Dave, hence the L shaped trim, (although not sure I'd like it in my bathroom)

yes I am from "across the pond" and appreciate this forum which I stumbled across when searching for info related to my question. Glad I could introduce you chaps to the term "Sheetrock" :) This Arch will be at the entrance to the shower, there will be a shower curtain that will hang behind arch. We have not settled on type of tile yet. Is there a recommendation as to what to use on arch to ease the pain of installation? The sheetrock side of arch I did not plan on waterproofing since it is on the dry side of arch.

Doug, I was unable to view your picture
Phil, that formable metal tile trim looks exactly like what I need to make the transition.
Dave you speak of decoration, what did you have in mind?

Again, I really appreciate the help.
