After much banging and clanging the shower is ready for tile. The contractors removed all the old tile and underlayment,
swapped the old fixture for a new one then prepped the walls for the new tile. They hung new "green board," the underlayment
for the tile, waterproof paper and then the metal lathe for the mortar that the tile will set into.
This morning: Tile!
ps:b/w, unsharp mask...
