: I recently had a drain roughed in prior to slab being poured for a basement shower. I want to get ready for the tile installer who will tile the floor and walls of the shower. (1) How high should I leave the strainer off the floor, (2) what type of drain strainer assembly is correct for a tile floor. I have something like 2 or 3 inch PVC sticking up about 6 inches. I expect that the tile guy will want to use some of that sheet material under the tile. Also, I am putting in a sink and toilet. All supplies and drains (including toilet flange) are in place. Anything I should be aware of? I am told that being right next to the gravity soil pipe (exits the house below the floor), I don't need any vents. Also - how do I fasten the PVC flange to the floor (or do I need to)? It is glued to the pipe, but the concrete was just poured around it. Thanks

Hi - I hate to say this - and I may be completly missing something here - but I think that the roughin work for the shower is all wrong. I'd get the tile guy out there pronto and go over it with you. Hill
