Where is the shower isolating valves normally placed so that it is easily accessible at a later date for maintenance? The pipework for my shower will all be under the floor and in a partition wall so I can't think where to put it.
What kind of shower?
Tank outlet if all else fails.

Or behind an accessible and removeable access panel.
I have the pipework for mine emerging from the wall under the bath, where there are isolating valves which you access by removing the bath panel (actually, hinging it up in this case, as it hangs on hinges from a piece of 3x2).
