done a few now. firstly is it on a wooden floor or solid, as all wastes need to be under the floor so obviously wooden floor is easier for that part. next you need to have a slight fall towards the waste outlet so any water on floor all goes to one point which can be done several ways depending on floor type shape etc. then you need to seal the walls to floor so water that runs down the tiles on the wall goes straight on to floor covering and away this is best done with a special latex sealer which is a two part system with a mesh in second part for strenght bit like fiberglass mesh, as said though depends on materials used to do the job. nicest way of making a designated shower enclosure is plate glass in steel runners set in walls and floor to hold it in place but all the finer details can add a lot of cost to job but make it that wow factor these type of rooms are done for, any specifics you need just ask me and i'll try to help you best i can hope some of that might help
