  • Shower screen over bath

    Hello, I am wanting to fit a shower screen myself. I am always wary of wires behind walls/pipes ect. Can anyone tell me if there is likely to be anything behind directly where I want to drill please? It would be at the start of the tiled wall where a shower screen goes. I have a shaver socket 3 + 1/2 inches away from the shower.
