Arc Tuff Form Classic Shower Foundations

Tuff Form Classic Shower Foundations

Tuff Form Classic foundations make it easy to build custom, stylish showers with your choice of tile or stone finishing materials. These pre-sloped tile shower bases can be installed and waterproofed in a day, depending on your project's complexity and framing needs, and ready for tile or stone the following day. Tuff Form Classic foundations offer the advantages of curb-less level-entry with built-in versatility to accommodate any decorative options a person can imagine.
