/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Trying to decide between custom shower pan and pre fab shower plan. The surround is going to be tile no matter what.

Thoughs
Prefab seems cleaner and nicer looking because a shower base is similar to a basin (sink or toilet bowl) so it seems fitting to have something that is one piece and completely permeable and one color. Like you wouldnt tile the inside of a porcelain sink or toilet bowl.

Also i like the standardization of the prefab so that it can be adjusted (i will be moving the drain line for either)

Although mortar basin seems to be more "homey" or "upscale" but im not so sure it looks better and im not sure if there is any functionality benefit to it.
