I'm a self-employed contractor and this was the biggest job I've done so far. I guess this still counts as DIY since I did it all by myself? (except for the electric)

Agreed about the drain. We have the same problem in Canada and I think it's because the insurance companies, restoration companies, and builders are conspiring here to keep it that way.

But I would prefer that the shower was self contained and had its own drain. The wet baths I constantly deal with when I travel are one of my pet peaves.
