apologies if this is in the wrong section.
When installing a resin/stone type shower tray, directly on a wooden floor, what do people use to keep it in place, adhesive/sealant etc.
Might add that it will be sitting on green chipboard, and I can't raise it up due to restricted headroom.

As the replies I got to my previous setting out post were so helpful so I thought I'd ask for your setting out advice again if I may. This time it's the floor, and especially around the wetroom tray former.
The tiles are 330mm and the tray former is 1350x1050 with the drain at an awkward non...

As per the title, I have a 1170 recess and the customer wants me to replace the shower and re-tile as the existing shower leaked through the floor below. The old shower tray was fitted with a ledge and tiled onto. The room also has a chipboard floor and plasterboard walls. Consequently, the...

I took on my own large bathroom upstairs in my new build. Its 2,5x3.5m room and have tiled all walls and floor and ready to tile my wet room tray but I'm out in 1 corner about 12mm. If this was anywhere else in the room I could fill out with tile adhesive and it would never be seen but this wet...

I'm installing a kaskade wet room tray and I'm 2mm out. The cascade tray is 28mm thick with a 6mm rebate for waterproof board to sit on but when I take out the floorboards so tray sits on joist, the floorboards are 20mm thick. This means if I sit tray on joist and put boards on top of...
Hi All
I am having some work done on an ensuite shower cubicle and I want to make sure it is fitted without possibility of leaks. So far I have established
1) ply on walls
2) Use Knauf Aquapanel or Hardie Backer boards (some say tanked others not - apparently Knauf recommend not? can anyone...
I am about to tile a shower room. The shower tray which has been installed is 1100 but a 1200 would have been better and would not have left a gap at the end. Wall tiles would have overlapped the sides.
I am considering whether I could get away with the existing or should I remove this and go...
Hi all,
hope you can help?
The last shower tray I stuck down with tile adhesive had a very slight flex in the middle when set. I guess this was not enough tile adhesive? I used my normal 10 mm U notched floor trowel.
Has anyone got any tips for solid bedding these down? Should I use a 15 or...
I'm attempting to tile a shower enclosure for the first time. I'm using an upstand shower tray; I've already recessed the tray so the upstand is flush with the wall (well, flush at the outer extremes - the corner isn't square so the upstand is actually indented by a few mm in the corner but I...

Does anyone have any ideas on the neatest way to deal with the 15mm gap that's left between my shower tray and the tiled floor surface?
The tray is enamelled steel 1400mm in length and although the feet are at the lowest setting, it's still 15mm higher than the tiles. The tiles are 300 x...
The shower tray is in, it has been set with sand and cement mix and silicon between shower tray and walls (it's rectangular).
How do I set the tiles at the edge of the shower tray on the floor? I have purchased Mapei's jasmine sealant, do I just put that on the edge of the tile and down the...
Trying to put right a shower that was badly tiled by someone else. There was a lip on the edge of the shower tray to tile in front of to stop any water going behind it. Instead, they didn't install it against the wall, and have consequently tiled down to the top of it. This means they've then...

Is it good practice that you always run a bead of Silicon up the vertical corners and around the shower tray.
We are installing a tiled marmox showerlay tray and the wife would like the corners grouted as she says the Silicon just ends up going mouldy in time.
Thanks for the replies
Morning
I have asked this question elsewhere probably in the wrong forum though.
Should I sit the wedi boards on top of the marmox showerlay tray or butt the tray up to the boards which will be mounted floor to ceiling. The joints will be sealed with wedi 610 and SA waterproof tape either way I...
Hi
I have put a couple of posts previously asking about shower trays and thank you everyone for replying!
I have a question about bedding the Mira flight low shower tray onto plywood with BAL single part fast flex.
I am planning to use a 10 mm trowel as the maximum bedding thickness for BAL...
Hello
Has anyone ever installed a Coram slimline shower tray bedded in tile adhesive or even sand and cement?
Below is a link to the instructions, for fitting the shower tray without riser legs onto a timber or solid floor but it only mentions using Silicon sealant to bed the shower tray...
