shower tray

I’m planning to connect a shower trap to the waste pipes for a new shower tray. The waste outlet is located towards the wall in the center, so the waste pipes will need a 90-degree bend. I’ll need to make a cut near the existing Tee, but I’m concerned that if I don’t get it right the first time...

I’m laying down a 1200 x 760 stone resin on a floor that isn’t level. Manufacture instructions recommend a cement mix or silicone. Silicone seems like the simpler option but can this be used to level a shower tray? Or would a sand cement mix be better for this?

I’m planning to install a shower tray, but I’ve noticed it’s bowed by about 3mm, which is within the manufacturer’s tolerance. My concern is how to securely attach a shower screen, given that the tray isn’t perfectly flat. Do you have any advice on the best approach?

I’ve recently purchased a shower tray, and I noticed that the middle is slightly raised when I check it with a spirit level. Are the edges of a shower tray supposed to be completely flat, or is this normal? Should I be concerned about this affecting installation or water drainage?

Hi, We have a raised curved shower tray and the plinth/skirt is cracked. The height of the gap is 4" or 105mm; and try as I might I can only find the full kit. https://amzn.eu/d/jdxIbHI I've asked the supplier if they'll sell just the plinth, but have refused to do so. The only others I...

Please could anyone advise me on a temporary fix for my shower waste drain pipe. As you look down the shower tray drain there is a hole in the pipe about the size of a 1 pence. Is there anything I could use to seal it that would withstand the constant flow of water passing over and through it...

The waste hole for my shower tray is located in the middle, but the existing waste pipe is not aligned with it. Should I route the waste pipe under the floor to match the position of the waste hole, or is it possible to reroute it above the floor, given that the tray will be installed on a...

I'm about to install a shower tray onto caperboard, sealed with SBR primer followed by a sand/cement mix to level it off. The walls are 12mm nomoreply cement board. Due to the uneven floors, there's a gap as the floor slopes away (only a small gap though). There is also (due to me messing up...

I fitted a 1600 x 800 shower tray a few weeks ago. After muh reading I decided to go with what the instructions said, the dreaded 5:1 sand and cement, with a bit of SBR added to the mix. The floor is a concrete sub floor so in order to get the drain under the tray I built a plinth out of CLS...

Hi All, I have a 7 yr old new build house (Bloor) and have recently had to replace my double size shower tray as ours had cracked and was leaking water (turns out it wasn't properly supported no surprise). I've just replaced it with a heavy ceramic shower tray, plumbed in the waste, RE-wet...

I am currently doing a bathroom renovation and decided on fitting a Merlyn Level 25 stone resin shower tray. In the instructions, the first thing they get you to do is check that there isn't an excessive bow on all four sides. They do this by getting you to prop up the tray on four blocks of...

I’ve just had a 1100mm x 900mm acrylic stone resin shower tray fitted but it’s been stood on whilst setting with on a bed of recommended adhesive.
