A lot of our work here is in flats that were just handed over. That is the best time to fit an enclosure. An empty bathroom is faster to work in. The dust falls where it does not matter. The silicone also gets the days it needs to dry before anyone showers.
Before you move in is the right time
Drilling tile makes fine dust. In a flat you live in, that dust lands on everything you own.
Silicone is the other reason. A shower seal needs a clear day or two to dry before it gets wet. In an empty flat this happens on its own. In a flat you live in, someone always showers first.
There is also nothing to move. No cupboards, no bucket, no shelf of bottles in the way. The same enclosure goes in much faster.
Builder bathrooms are close to standard, not standard
Every flat on your floor has the same drawing. We still measure yours.
Tile work is done one flat at a time. Two bathrooms built to the same plan can differ by ten or fifteen millimetres in width once tiled. The walls are rarely straight top to bottom either.
So we measure the width at the top, the middle and the floor. We make the glass to the smallest one. Glass cut to your neighbour's size will not close.
