    In my opinion i really dont see a cost effective solution here,its possible to do the cheaper option and make a shelf with concrete board that is higher than the bath and seal the edges with tec 7 but the worry with this is that the bath will flex and break the seal.
    What i would do
    A/If you dont have a shower at the other end of the bath,move the bath down to the power shower end and put the box section shelf on the other end of the bath.this will mean taking off the bottom row of tiles and fitting a new sealux seal all round.Was there a reason why the power shower didnt go at the other end of the bath above the taps?
    b/partition out the wall the same distance as as the gap with battons and concrete board and fit a new seal and tanking kit.this is the best solution but possibly the most costly

    The pipes were easier to install down the new end rather then the opposite end Agusta, so I was told anyway. I have no shower down the other end only the standard bath taps with the small shower head attachment.

    Moving the bath down to the other end is a good idea providing there is enough flex on exsisting pipes on right hand side. I dont think I would need to take off tiles that end just make some shelving and water proof it as there would be no power stream of water.

    Many thanx for the help, hopefully I can sort it myself......:(

    I honestly taught I would be able to get an extra wide bath trim and seal it job done!!!!

    It is probally to make a seal with fiberglass fill the area,i dont think it impossible.its just hard to ensure its sealed correctly
