With refrence to windows in the shower. I have been putting in Corian window sills when I have a window in the shower. The first apartment that we did this in was in an apartment house where the sills were totally disintegrated from the the shower water. In addition, the area below the sill was all disintegrated We replaced the window sill with a fabricated Corian sill (a local place did that) and we also put a broad Corian apron below it to replace the tiles and wonder board that had disintegrated.
That worked out beautifully, both cosmetically and it was also water proofed in its future life. I had this same issue again and also replaced the sill with a nice Bull nosed piece of corian that looked great and was completley water proof. Try it you will be happy with it

plan on a full gut down to studs. if u are going to get into it, do it right. same with kitchens. everyone knows baths and kitchens are what people care about. rooms are for sleeping 8 hrs and that's usually done at night.
