About this material

A prefabricated niche gives a square, waterproof-ready recess without building one from board and hoping the corners stay true.

Position matters more than size. A niche should align with a horizontal grout line and sit between studs, which usually means deciding its location during framing rather than during tiling.

Goes with it

The parts of the assembly this material depends on. Ordering them together avoids the mid-project discovery that the mortar is wrong for the format.
