Hi,
I have a 900mm stone resin shower tray that I am installing in my ensuite. The flooring is chipboard and is reasonably level. The waste pipes will need to cross where the joists are so I will be raising the tray so that the pipes are above the floor.
I'm trying to decide on the best way to raise and anchor the tray. If the tray was placed directly on the floor, the underside of the base of the tray would touch the floor, i.e. the base is flush with the bottom of the sides of the tray.
I was thinking about buying some treated timber (100mm high), fixing that to the floor (somehow), then placing the shower tray on top of the timber (fixed - somehow).
Does this sound sensible? And what should I fix the timber to the floor with and what should I fix the tray to the timber with?
Many thanks.
