Tile around freestanding bath waste

[diycooper]

How would you best tile around this waste ?

I am guessing that you are going to have to remove the bath to tile in the first place. Can you not remove the waste and use a hole cutter?

Yes bath can be removed and a hole cutter for tile but the crome pipe is a bend in one.

Would I be able to slide tile over crome and around the bend ?

Possibly but that depends on the size of the tile and sounds really difficult. Additionally, you will have to cut a hole large enough to accommodate the nut.

Cut a larger hole and then use a chrome collar to hide the gap.

Tiles are big. 1200mm x 600mm

Cut waste pipe at vertical section out of floor and add new elbow section allowing tile to drop over pipe.

A new chrome elbow ?
