Make a bath tub and tile it

[Balloo]

I have an interior designer asking me can I make a bath and tile it .
Has anyone else done this .
Looking for some advice

Wedi, Marmox and a couple of other manufacturers make foam encapsulated cement boards in different shapes and configurations. You can then tile these in mosaic, but not an easy task!!

@MissTiler is our resident mosaic expert who I believe has done one before

It’s been done in large format thin tile too.

That looks like a wet room drain marc, how does that close off to become a bath ?

There's probably a valve made from Unicorn horn controlled by a flux capacitor behind a touch panel.

Secret! That's where the big money is made.

People who can make bespoke baths I guess!

You can quite easily incorporate a concealed pop-up plug below the tiles.

You wouldn't be messing around with pop up plugs, you would use one of these....

Saw it done last year in the hydro pool at the physiotherapy centre I attended. I got chatting to the guy there who showed me their setup. Learnt a thing or two there that could easily be integrated into the domestic bathroom or wet room
