My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Measure fro the wall to the outside edge of the tub for both the width and the length. It is best for the curtain to slope slighty into the tub which it will do when he track is mounted on the outside edges of the tub.
