Not really Tiling as such, but I thought you guys would probably be the best to ask.

We've had a small ensuite built in a pitched roof dormer, so it has sloping ceilings both sides. I've put in the shower tray, quite a big one which just completely fills one side of the room (shower enclosure). I know that I'm going to have to cut into the sloping section of the ceiling slightly to fit the flat glass end shower screen and the support bar for the curved one but that's ok, I've checked and I've got plenty of depth to play with in the ceiling void to do it and fit a noggin for supoort if need be.

I've tiled the vertical sections of the walls using these - tiles - going up to the bottom of the sloped section on the side walls (about shoulder height) and up to level with the top of the door on the end gable shaped wall.

The shower head is to be mounted on the end wall and will be above the level of where the top of the tiles is on the side walls.

So what I'm looking for is some sort of plastic panel or acrylic sheet to stick onto part of the sloped section of the ceiling so that it -

• covers the currently exposed top edge of the tiles

• provides protection to the area of ceiling above the shower from water

• can be neatly cut around the shower screen and support bar to cover up whatever I have to do to the ceiling to fit them

• fits in reasonably well with the tiles (probably lighter in colour as the window in there ain't huge and I don't want to make the room too dark and small feeling)

I'd also maybe put a similar panel on the other side of the ceiling above where the toilet and basin are going so as to balance the look of the room up.

Any suggestions of materials and/or suppliers would be appreciated.

Pictures would help a lot

Yeah I know, I'll get a few at the weekend when it's daylight.

Easy peasy to install

Here's what I've got.

Electric shower is going on the wall where you can see the pipe and the wiring coming through the tiles, with the shower head on the adjacent wall almost at the top of the tiling.

So what I want to clad is the sloped area of ceiling as far up as the top of the tiling on the left wall.
