How to Build an Enclosed Outdoor Shower

Locate the outdoor waterline on the exterior of your house. Measure from the water line up the exterior wall with a tape measure to where you would like to mount the shower head. Drill two guide holes in the wall. Place the shower head bracket over the guide holes, and screw it into place with a screwdriver.

Thread one end of a piece of hose onto the threaded opening in the water line pipe and tighten it. Thread and tighten the other hose end onto the shower head. Mount the shower head into its bracket. Use the handles on the water line to turn the water on and off.

Measure the width of a fence panel with a tape measure. Stake the start of the enclosure at the house's exterior wall with two stakes placed the width of a fence panel apart. Place two more stakes opposite these stakes to mark the corners of the enclosure's outer wall that will be parallel to the water-line wall.

Connect the stakes with a length of string. Measure the corners formed by the stakes and string with an angle ruler to ensure that each corner is a 90-degree angle. Dig a post hole with a clamshell digger in front of each stake, ensuring that the string remains behind the outer edge of the hole.

Fill each hole with gravel. Mix cement and water in a wheelbarrow. Place a post in the first hole, and fill the hole with cement. Smooth the cement with a trowel. Hold the post steady until the cement sets. Cement the other posts into place. Remove the stakes and guide strings.

Join two fence panels to three posts to form an "L" by nailing evenly spaced clips to the posts and then into the sides of the panels with a hammer. Drill four guide holes onto the third fence panel. Screw two hinges onto the panel to act as a door. Mount the door to the post by the hinges.

Screw an eye hook into the remaining post. Screw a hook fastener into the side of the third panel opposite the hinges. Thread the hook through the eye on the post to fasten the door. Put a bed of gravel on the ground. It should slope away from the water line wall to ensure adequate shower drainage.
