Frequently asked questions about the Shower bases category
What are Shower bases?
Shower bases are prefabricated shower floor units made from acrylic, porcelain stoneware (keramogranite), artificial stone or metal; they provide waterproofing, drainage and define the shower area. SityPro offers rectangular, oval and square shower bases in various sizes and installation heights.
Shower bases made of porcelain stoneware (keramogranite) — benefits and typical use?
Porcelain stoneware bases are very durable, scratch-resistant and have low water absorption, making them suitable for heavy use and contemporary designs. They are heavier than acrylic and usually require a prepared supporting base and a floor drain installation.
What shower base sizes are available and how to choose the right one?
Available sizes include common options like 80×80 cm, 90×90 cm and rectangular 70×90 cm; heights range roughly from 12 cm to 38 cm for deep trays. Choose by bathroom space: 90×90 cm for larger cabins, 70×90 cm for narrow layouts, and ensure compatibility with the drain location.
When are deep shower bases appropriate?
Deep shower bases (up to about 38 cm height) are useful when larger water capacity or space for the trap and waste is needed, or when avoiding extensive screed work. They work well where drain slope is limited or when concealing plumbing beneath the tray.
Tiled shower bases — how are they installed and how do they differ?
A tiled shower base is built by applying waterproofing and a sloped mortar bed, then tiling the surface to blend with the floor seamlessly. It differs from prefab trays by requiring professional substrate preparation, precise slope to the drain and thorough waterproofing.
Shower bases of artificial stone — what are the characteristics?
Artificial stone (solid surface) shower bases are homogeneous, smooth and provide good thermal resistance; they resist stains and can be restored by sanding. SityPro carries shapes and heights suitable for recessed or above-floor installation.
Can I order shower bases made to measure and what options exist?
Yes, SityPro offers made-to-measure shower bases with options for shape (rectangular, oval), custom dimensions and installation height, and material choice such as acrylic, artificial stone or metal. Custom orders include specification of measurements and installation drawings with a specialist.
How to tell artificial stone shower bases from acrylic when choosing?
Artificial stone is denser, usually matt or semi-matt and heavier; acrylic is lighter, often glossier and slightly flexible. Choose based on durability, restorability and installation method — acrylic is easier to trim, artificial stone is longer-lasting.
Are 70×90 shower bases suitable for a narrow bathroom and how to install?
A 70×90 cm base is a suitable space-saving option for narrow or elongated bathrooms, offering a functional shower area. Installation requires checking drain position; options include above-floor or partially recessed installation depending on chosen height.
Buying shower bases — what comparison criteria to use before purchase?
Compare material (acrylic, artificial stone, porcelain stoneware, metal), dimensions and height, whether a front panel is included and compatibility with the drain/trap. Also consider shape (square/rectangular/oval), durability and rated maximum load of the model.
