Hi I am looking to fit a wet room and the dimensions I have are 1000 wide by 800 deep. I am struggling to find a tray that size with a centre drain. Can I cut down a 1200 by 800 reducing the 1200 to a thousand and simply allow for a packer (full s . . .

Which means that your drain will still not be directly in the centre of the tray. The best solution would be a bespoke tray in this case. If thats something you would be interested in please contact our customer service representatives and they will gladly assist in ordering a bespoke tray.

Hi. Our previous builder painted our concrete wet room floor with grey anti-slip paint which has subsequently begun to flake and peel to expose the old white floor underneath. I’ve read up and it seems he should have used a primer first. Do I no . . .

Yes you would need to remove all the existing paint in order to expose the surface that you want to prime.

Do I tile directly on the tray or do I have to put tanking material on first ?

You can tile directly on the tray, however we highly recommend doing a layer of waterproofing prior to tiling to ensure that everything is nicely sealed prior to tiling. Proper waterproofing is essential to avoid any costly issues in the future.

Do I Need A Shower Tray For A Wetroom?

I have a 1300x700 area which I want to fit a wet room shower tray. Am I able to buy a 1400x900 off yourselves and cut to fit?

Hello Luke,

Thank you for your message.

I can confirm that our trays are trimmable and there are several options for your 1300 x 700 shower area.

We can manufacture a bespoke tray to match that size exactly. It would take about 10 days and would have higher price but it wouldn't need any extra materials or effort,

900 x 1400 tray with central drain, so you can cut it down to size symmetrically,
800 x 1200 tray, cutting down to size the 800 mm dimension and extending 1200 to 1300 using tile backer boards, which are made of similar material to what the tray is made of.
If you can afford waiting, in my opinion it would be the best idea to go for a custom size wet room tray.

In case of any other questions I will be happy to assist.

Kind regards

Hi there, I am using 18mm thick tiles to tile my wet room floor, will they be compatible with the Quadra Offset FastFlow Dallmer. Thanks

The Quadra gulleys have a lip 10 mm, additionally there is a 7mm extension that is provided. If you are using a thicker tile such as 18mm you can request a second extension in order to raise the cover even higher to accommodate for the extra height required. You can then set the times at the correct height using the appropriate amount of tile adhesive to match the height of the cover.
