Thank you guys & to Dan for exploding the photo out -- last night right after I posted this thread, the internet went down & remained down -- nationwide issue with AT&T -- until 9:30am. So, I could not get back to AA and straighten out my attachments.

The wife and I are very happy with the whole affair -- just want to use it now. Turned out better than I expected -- I had high hopes, but it is quite a transformation. My realtor lady thought it was awesome.

Anyways, what you don't see & I had them incorporate it -- is an access door for the garden tub hardware/water lines & another to the far right of the tub -- access to the motor.

They drilled 4 holes at each corner section & secured with Philips head screws. Grouting over the heads (I was going to put Philips head caps on -- in a semi matching color, but the grout worked the best).

If I need access to those areas, drill out the grout covering the Philips headed screws, carefully, and then reverse the screws out. Use a utility knife to etch around the tile to loosen it for removal.

Put it back on and fill any areas & screw heads with matching MAPEI Navajo Brown silconized acrylic caulk.

Done deal.

Best Sirs,

Bob
