More recently, prefabricated shower bases have been designed to simplify installation. However, conventional prefabricated shower bases still suffer from waterproofing issues. In this context, there is a need for prefabricated shower bases with improved waterproofing properties. A shower base module for constructing a tiled shower is provided, the shower base module comprising: a base portion on which tiles are to be subsequently installed, the base portion comprising a drainage aperture, wherein a top surface of the base portion slopes downwardly towards the drainage aperture and wherein the top surface comprises a plurality of drainage grooves, each groove leading into the drainage aperture; flashing extending upwardly from one or more sides of the base portion. 212 p,4L4~ f - A? 2.g F/A'z&E a
