It doesn't have to be very high, but even a couple of inches would contain the water. Build a square curb and epoxy it over the tile, waterproof it with something like redgard, and tile it. Water will be contained and it won't look like an afterthought - or pool noodles. :D Hey Joanne,

As long as the overall thickness, after both slopes, is minimum 1 1/4" it'll be fine. Hey Larry,

You can extend it if you want to or you can simply make the preslope about 1/8″ higher than the top of the bottom flange and leave it where it is. As long as the overall thickness, after both slopes, is minimum 1 1/4″ it’ll be fine.
