Have a typical 5' fiberglass tub/shower surround. Unfortunately, tub floor has developed a crack. Have squeezed some silicone caulk into it and if we stand on the proper side of it it stays closed enough that it doesn't perceptibly leak. Wife doesn't care if we have a tub or not in this room so looking for thoughts on just tiling up a shower. Thinking about stealing some of the space at the end for some sort of linen cupboard, but that's not a must. Wife has outlawed a simple fiberglass floor so looking for either some sort of solid material floor or what it would all take to do a tile floor. I'm leaning toward a solid floor, but my wife just isn't familiar with anything other than the fiberglass and is insisting on tile. Seems harder to me, but maybe the costs are in line.
Next item of discussion is how long it would take a professional to do something pretty straightforward like this. I am always inclined to do something like this myself, but time availability is really limited right now so might just hire the work out if I can find somebody with good references/samples.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts,
Kirk
