You really do need a shower chair, but I found these bathrooms need a copper
subfloor with a special tile that drains to a universal drain in the bathroom.
The tile has microgrooves to direct the water to the drain and theres very
little tilt. The copper subfloor is needed because anything you do may fail in
one or more places and the copper can also be designed to drain. I like putting
a heated cement subfloor below the copper. Along with a vent fan the bathroom
needs a small fan stirring the air for about 10 minutes after you leave it. It
should be set to turn on every 12 hours if its not used. This helps stop mold
and mildew from forming.

The only problem is me and my electric chair together weigh over 400 lbs. I
have mirrors in my corner shower so I can wheel in at an angle and fix my hair

could hold the weight without it eventually cracking. i'd like to pour concrete
and have my entire bathroom concrete

Hey,
When I was trying to get my roll-in done I discovered a few things. Home
Depot and Lowes have catalogs with various types of pre-made i believe
fiberless roll in showers that can be ordered through them.
My x gf had one put one in and it was pretty easy to install. All you do
is build a stud(2x4) frame the size of the insert and slide the insert in.
One prob was there was still a small lip to get over to get in shower.
This could be solved by dropping the floor height where the insert is to be
installed by 3/4 inch then it would be an even entrance pretty much. Just make
sure you get a big enough shower.
