Took a while , weekends mostly, made sense for us this is a basement bathroom that was 2 piece made into 3. Acrylic base and tile walls. The glass was ordered custom from local glass guy. Used kerdi board behind tiles. Window removal and relocate drain was the worst part of it. I ended up with back omen shower trim kit. Floor heated under tile not under shower base . Tough decision was shower base or tile base I’m ok with the final decision. My other shower is all acrylic, I’d say maintenance is about the same, both need cleaned same frequency. I have a vileda shower cleaning tool that makes that job not so bad and a squeegee for after showers. A good fan that we let run for an hour or so after showers helps too. pics
