    Tile tub drain
    I am custom building a tile tub, how do I install drain fixture? Also, do I need a shower liner or can I tile directly to the wood frame?

    If you are building a own sunken tub than you probably have to Hot Mop it. It is too deep for liner. You have to buy specific drain designed for these types of tubs.
