A shower tray is the waterproof base installed at the bottom of a shower enclosure. It collects and directs water safely to the waste outlet, protecting your bathroom floor from leaks. It provides a stable, level surface and forms the foundation of your shower enclosure and screen.
Most shower trays are made from stone resin, acrylic, reinforced fibreglass, or acrylic-capped resin. Stone resin trays are especially popular in the UK due to their strength, durability, and heat retention. Many modern trays also include anti-slip finishes for added safety.
To fit a shower tray correctly:Ensure the floor is level and strong enough to support the tray.Install and connect the shower tray waste.Position the tray on a solid base (often mortar for resin trays).Check it is perfectly level.Allow it to set before sealing. Professional installation is recommended to prevent leaks.
To seal a shower tray:Clean and dry the surfaces.Apply sanitary-grade silicone sealant along the edges.Smooth the seal evenly for a watertight finish. Proper sealing prevents water damage and mould growth.
Yes, the shower tray is typically installed first. Wall panels or tiles are then fitted so they slightly overlap the tray edge, ensuring a waterproof seal when silicone is applied.
Replacing a shower tray involves removing the enclosure, disconnecting plumbing, lifting out the old tray, installing the new one level, reconnecting the waste, and resealing properly. Due to plumbing requirements, professional fitting is advised.
You can paint a shower tray using specialist epoxy or bath repair paint, but it is usually a temporary solution. The finish may wear over time, especially in frequently used showers.
Small cracks can sometimes be repaired using acrylic or resin repair kits. However, large or structural cracks often require full replacement to prevent leaks and further damage.
The smallest standard shower tray commonly available in the UK is 700 x 700mm, though 800 x 800mm is more widely used for compact bathrooms and en-suites.
