The envelopes should be cut out of the bond you already have on the main floor, looks like you've got a 100mm cut running down rh side, this should be followed through to the tray, is it all stuck down or could you rethink the whole floor set out?
Can't see much evidence of tanking around the wet area?

Kop - I think you may have lost the slopes of your tray with your covering layer of levelling compound!
Sorry guys still there i didn't flood that area slopes are still there you can see em on the marked out picture confident on the tiling just need to get back to the bond in the nestest way thought you guys may have few ideas ? if not will do the the remainder first and work out some cuts to get me back ? All the best Kop

This is where a DCM pro type of system rises above the rest.

The bond should be exactly the same as on the rest of the floor with the envelopes needed to make the falls cut into them..
Ok guys can re cut the tiles to the left to get grout lines to work . cheers kop

Yes I see your predicament now - you’ve centred the outlet with a joint!
So as you say you’ll have to recut away to the side to continue the bond line of the tile widths. May have been a larger cut to both side walls with a tile centred on the drain outlet and then to follow the bond up the walls.
It’s always a personal decision in the end. Unless your working for an engineer or architect, then anything whimsical can happen.

Is there a shower cubicle going up or just a screen?
