Great looking job John. I've installed heated floors in several showers over the years with no problems of the electrical kind. (I don't know why in a shower but that's what the customers wanted.) Great idea to put the heat in the tub though.

That is cool. Awesome project John. I need to find somebody local who can be talked into a tub. That looks like it would be so much fun to build.

Nice Jeremy, you might want to have the plumber shove some mud under the tub though for support.

John Cox, I must say, that tub is so cool. Jeremey, nice work also.

Here's a master bath I've been working on for quite a while. Pillowed white marble and some Crossville Glass Blox with an Aco linear drain. Tomorrow I'll grout it with Spectralock.

The drain is Quartz by Aco. I didn't choose it. Their instructions were useless and customer service was non existent but it turned out fine. If I had the choice I would have used quick drain or noble from what I have seen.
