Envelope cuts with a curved wet room screen - Tile Advice

[Chalker]

As the title suggests, normally with a curved wet room screen I would advise mosaics . But the customer wants the floor tiles running into the tray.
Has anyone any ideas how to do the cuts?

I'm presuming I can do a curved cut to the same shape as the screen.

yes you can but it will require few cits from screen to drain. and it woildnt look good i think. as you will have 2 cuts on one side and 5-10 on other side.

cut a curve in a cardboard i one point it will be level in other it will be below level and you will have to compensate that with cuts.

thats what i think i might be wrong

Interesting. I've only done a couple of wetrooms, and not come across this yet, so very interested to hear how you deal with this!?!

Diagram would be helpfully. There will be a few ways of doing this.

Ok, best I can think of is just envelope cut as normal but mount the screen with its most outer part within the fall.

Done a few with mosaics one side and large format the other.

It will be tricky getting the cut right first time.

u will have problem with levels. u will have to use showel to apply selant and rake to spread it

Can't say I've done one but have just done a wetroom with seamless screen but into the floor.
I would probably approach this the same and cut the shape/curve out of the tray. Once your "top" level is boarded you'd have a flat surface to mount the screen to.
