Eve all, tried looking for similar post but no joy!
I need to create a shower on the far wall, I was thinking of the shower tray approximately 1200 x 800 and then boxing in around it was a stud wall, plaster boarding and tiling!
Question is can I and how do I tile the sloping ceiling?
I do not have enough clearance for glass shower panels that's why need to create a custom framework and tile!
Cheers

Not related to your tiling question but the framing on your velux hasn't been done properly.
The bridles should be doubled up top and bottom of the window and sitting in galvanised shoes.
I'm not meaning to be a smart Alec,it's just if it's to be signed off it needs addressing.

Carpentry,I can explain it to you but I cannot understand it for you.

As soon as you cut a rafter out to install a velux it must have a doouble bridle(trimmer) top and bottom and the rafters should be doubled as well.
If the velux fits inbetween two existing rafters then single rafters and bridles will suffice.
I've never seen it done with single bridles or rafters when the roof structure has been altered.
