I never understand the viewpoint of needed to tank a wet room but not a shower. The only difference is the floor has a former and not a tray, there's still tiled walls in a shower. Most of the issues with shower leaks come from the joint to the tray leaking and soaking up the wall. If the wall is water proof then it can't happen.

Its true wgat they say about you on here, a know it all who thinks he is always rightSounds like the Lady doth protest too much.
The name calling didn’t take long though. It shows a lack of any substance in your argument.

Not sure if it makes much difference but my shower (in question) is over a bath not a wet room or a shower tray

It doesn’t make a huge amount of difference. Out of the two I’d suggest that a shower above a bath is the less likely to require tanking.
As already mentioned, it will probably be fine. A point to consider though is making sure your Bath to tile joint is sealed before you install your shower screen, your shower valve shroud(s) is sealed to the tiles, especially important if a shroud sits on top of a grout joint. Shower tidy holes are sealed alongside any slider bar you might have. Also period checking/maintenance of the silicone seals and grout is also worthwhile.
Out of the two I’d go with Bal. something like Microflex or Micromax 2.
Thanks for that. Will make sure to do all of the above. We have our tanking kit (Ardex)
For the bath and a grout sealing spray which we will use often
So we haven’t yet tiled down completely to the bath .. there’s still a row of tiles to go ( the one on the top edge of the bath) so I thought I may as well tank that part! And the walls under/around the bathI'm confused now, is the tanking kit for another room or have you stripped back what had been done?
