A drain line and shower valve must be installed before a shower can be tiled. Installation of the drain line occurs during the ‘rough-in’ stage of the building process. Rough-in is a term used in plumbing referring to all the drainage and water piping installation that is installed before pouring the slab. Normally, shower drains are located at the center of the shower and should be around 2” when a complete custom shower is being installed.
The shower valve or rough-in valve is installed during the ‘top-out’ stage of the building process. Top-out is another plumbing term referring to all piping installed before the sheet rock can be installed. When you need a custom shower installation, Mock Plumbing in Sugar Land can help you.
