Sadly i have a concrete floor.
We have a range of waste outlets available which are suitable for use with tiled floors or vinyl sheet flooring and have gravity or pump wetroom drainage options.
Hi all i m replacing a bath with fitting a new shower cubical.
All of the wetroom waste outlet shower drains can be used in conjunction with wet room floor former shower tray bases or used independently.
To achieve this ensure that the floor is able to carry the weight of your shower base.

If your shower tray is a long way from the external wall where the waste pipe needs to go and the waste pipe will have to be threaded through several joists due to their orientation then it may be worth raising the tray up and running it above the floor this will be easier to do will maintain the structural integrity of your floor joists.
How to install a shower base on the concrete floor has been a question in many people s mind.
