Actually it's a bath tub with a shower head overhead.
The bathtub itself is an antique, with a curved end that looks sorta like this one:

except that our bathtub isn’t free-standing. It was walls on three sides lke most tubs.
While remodeling the bathroom, my parents somehow built a nice, perfectly shaped, curved wall that fits up against the tub perfectly. It looks really nice. It appears that they used sheetrock and mud. Then they added texture to the bathtub walls along with the other bathroom walls, and painted them all. It’s as though they never expected anyone to use the shower, because the walls clearly aren’t waterproof. (I can’t ask them what they were thinking because they are both now deceased.)
The faucet, valves, and shower head all come out the curved wall.
Now I am trying to figue out the best way to make the walls useful for showering. Tiles come to mind of course, though I don’t know if they can be installed on the curved part. Also, how do I add a waterproof backing that’s thin?
Any ideas? I can’t spend a fortune (it’s an old, but pretty nice house), but want it to be nice looking and durable.
Right now I’m considering using SpreadStone manufactured by Daich.

I need to build a bathroom in our bonus room behind the garage because my mother is going to move in there and she is handicapped. The washer and dryer are in there, so there are water lines close. I have estimated by shopping online that the shower stall, doors, faucets, sink, vanity, sink faucet, and toilet will be a little less than 0, so I am just wondering what it will cost to do the plumbing and build to walls. Also, is the plumbing easy, if so i could do it myself. We wont have a bath tub, just a shower, sink, and toilet. THANKS!
I have a separate shower and bathtub. I’m adding a walk in pantry to my kitchen. Part of it will be where the shower is now. I want to put the shower with the bath tub. I don’t want to take down the wall to add the shower. Is there by any chance a bathroom faucet that has an attachment on top of it to add one of them flexible spray shower heads?
Bath time for kids can sometimes be dangerous, especially when it comes to bathtub faucets. With this “Flo” soft faucet cover from Boon, you child can keep safe. The cover latches on easily to the tub faucet and keeps your child from getting hurt in the case of an accidental fall. It also spouts water and holds bubble bath, making it fun for kids too.
