Tiling Uneven Walls Shower

You should have used the proper substrate for your shower walls.

Tiling uneven walls shower.

When you ended the tiles at the window why weren t they all cut evenly. With the uneven ceiling level you would normally level or laser a horizontal line that runs around the shower enclosure at the top of the tile if leaving a top border tile free see below then measure your row lines down from there to the bottom and start with any bottom trip and cuts and actually place the tile from bottom up to the top. Also tile is heavy so put down blankets to protect the floors and tub from being damaged by falling pieces. Whatever you put there you are going to see the uneven tiles.

You could have wrapped around the edge w the tiles for a neater look. Find a matching thick chair rail edging 12 piece and you ll be fine. You still may be able to do it by removing the last tiles and redoing it. Just get some chair rail molding or some type of 1 trim pieces.

Begin by removing the old tile or the fiberglass shower wall. If the shower base is uneven tiles will have to be cut to fit the last row. When your walls are uneven and you use very thick tile which yours is it s going to happen. This will provide a straight edge for the tile to follow and help support it while it dries.

Mine is the same way because i used 3 4 thick tile on my wall. Attach a straight board to the backer board along the line. This is a dusty job so use plastic to cover your doorways wear a respirator that s rated for dust cover the floor with a drop cloth and make sure there s plenty of ventilation. I ended up going w a 1 thick basalt chair rail.
