what would you recommend

[mutley racers]

Thanks chaps, can anyone recommend a good make of shower tray and door. 1200×800. And a nice little vanity unit to go in th room also. I would like a nice heavy resin one I guess. With a plumbkit to raise it.

I cannot go under the floor with waste as some people have suggested as it is in a block of flats. Also, when studding onto concrete floors and ceilings, can you just us gripfil without fixings as am not sure what will be in the concrete? Or shall I just check with detector tool and drill? Scary thought.

The place is only to be rented so no need to put recesses in shower. Like the idea though

I would put a stud wall up and incorporate a recess in to this as a design.

Me too, leave a nice little shelf for shampoos etc.

Or adjust the layout if possible

I will not be able to adjust the layout as I will not be able to get the fall for the shower really. And there would be a problem with the door hitting shower tray

The stud would be my answer but no plasterboard, use a concrete board or hardibacker. I'd probably use a Mira Flight or Mira Fligh Low tray.

 

[mutley racers]

Hardibacker it is. Thanks for the advice guys

Third for the recess in the stud. Little bit of extra work, but so worth it. In a large shower, you need somewhere to store toiletries.
And it's win win. Custard will love it and you won't have to move soil.

I would love to have a recess (niche) next to the toilet with three sea shells on it, only a certain few people would get the joke.
