Marble and stone Shower Trays
Marble-stone shower trays, machined from solid blocks of Marble or Quartzstone to almost any size and shape and all produced in our Birmingham factory with the most modern CNC machines available. Minimal Marble-Stone shower trays are designed to offer a low profile with a depth of only 30mm are available in a wide range of designs and are made to individual requirements. We can produce irregular sizes to fit your space and all our shower trays trays are machined from a single block. There are no joints and we can incorporate features such as glass grooves to accommodate 10mm toughened glass panels that fit directly into the tray without the usual glass track. This is a surprisingly economic system simply requiring glass cut to size from a local supplier.
Increasingly popular are Quartzstones which look just like natural stone but are very strong, predictable, and very easy to maintain. This is the perfect solution for larger shower trays up to 3000 x 1400mm. and has the advantage that they do not require regular sealing and are easy to maintain. We are very selective about the choice of Limestones and Marble as many are simply unsuitable. We are happy to discuss your requirements simply give us a call.
Marble-Stone shower trays are available in a wide range of sizes, the waste can be positioned if required to suit joist spans for easier fitting. We use a Hi Flow waste as standard. Offering a simple solution for those who wish to create the “wet room” look without the problems associated with sealing and waterproofing we can produce trays to individual requirements.
Waste position
We use a McAlpine Hi Flow waste as standard and this can be positioned if required to sit between joists or to match an existing outlet. A waste must be situated a minimum of 250mm from any side.

Design Options
Glass grooves We can incorporate glass grooves that enable a piece of 12mm toughened glass to be fitted rather than a complete enclosure. This is a very cost-effective solution and creates a very minimal look. Glass panels can be incorporated on any side and are fitted when the walls are tiled using a glass retaining trim. Increasingly popular is to incorporate a Lead In area particularly when the tray is fitted between three walls

We can provide matching upstand strips to raise your tray if you are unable to sink the waste into the floor. Standard concrete blocks can be used, the total area must be supported (allow access to the waste from one side). The normal height is 110mm but can be made to suit. The upstands can be flush or set back 5mm to create an eyeline if required.
