FAQs

Is the anti-slip surface effective when wet?

Yes, the anti-slip surface is a standard feature designed to provide excellent grip and safety, even when the tray is wet.

Can I install this shower tray myself?

While the tray is designed for ease of installation, professional fitting is recommended to ensure a watertight seal and proper structural support. If attempting DIY, ensure you have the necessary skills and tools.

What makes this tray different from cheaper plastic ones?

This tray is made from a durable mineral composite material, offering a more solid feel, a premium slate effect finish, and superior comfort due to its warm-to-the-touch properties. It also prioritizes health and environmental factors with silica-free materials and eco-conscious manufacturing.

How do I clean the slate effect finish?

Clean with warm water and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish. Rinse and dry with a soft cloth.

Is the tray suitable for a wet room installation?

Yes, the ability to be cut to shape makes it adaptable for bespoke installations, including wet rooms, provided it is installed correctly with proper waterproofing and drainage.

What are the environmental benefits of this product?

The trays are manufactured using 100% renewable energy, and the company operates an optimal waste program to reduce its carbon footprint. The materials are also silica-free.

Can the tray be cut to fit an awkward corner?

Absolutely. One of its key features is its versatility, allowing it to be cut to shape to accommodate bespoke installations and challenging bathroom layouts.

Troubleshooting

Tray is not level

Check the subfloor or support structure for unevenness. Adjust leveling feet or shims as necessary and ensure the tray is properly bedded.

Water pooling on the surface

Verify that the waste trap is clear of debris and functioning correctly. Ensure the tray has a slight, consistent fall towards the waste outlet.

Scratches or marks on the surface

For minor scratches, try a mild abrasive cleaner like a baking soda paste. For deeper damage, consult a professional installer or the manufacturer for repair options.

Difficulty cutting the tray

Use a diamond-tipped blade or a suitable composite cutting blade. Ensure the tray is securely supported during cutting and wear appropriate safety gear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Professional installation is recommended to ensure proper sealing and support.

It can be installed directly onto a prepared subfloor or joists, depending on the existing bathroom structure. Ensure the waste outlet is correctly aligned and sealed.

Compatibility: Compatible with most standard shower enclosures and plumbing systems. Ensure your chosen waste fitting is suitable for the tray's drainage hole.

Care: Clean regularly with warm water and mild, non-abrasive detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or scouring pads, which can damage the slate effect finish.
