How do I work out the right shower tray size for my bathroom?

Measure the finished floor-to-wall alcove or corner where the tray will sit, noting the longest and shortest sides; common sizes here include 1600 x 800, 1400 x 800, 1000 x 800 and 900 x 800, while short sides often come in 700, 760, 800 or 900 mm. Allow a few millimetres for silicone seals and tile thickness so the tray sits flush, and check door swing or glass panel width so the enclosure can open freely. If you have a compact ensuite, a 900 x 800 or 1000 x 800 tray usually provides comfortable space without overwhelming the room; a family bathroom often benefits from 1200 x 800 or 1400 x 800 for a roomier shower.

What are the practical differences between acrylic-capped resin, acrylic-capped ABS and stone or marble resin trays?

Acrylic‑capped resin and acrylic‑capped ABS trays are lightweight, easy to clean and competitively priced, making installation simpler; they have a shiny, low‑maintenance surface. Stone resin, marble resin or Ducostone trays are heavier and feel more solid underfoot, retain warmth better and give a premium matt or slate effect finish, Mira's Flight range shows stone resin examples. Harder materials resist flex and can be more durable long‑term, but they need correct support during installation. If you want a balance of easy cleaning and good value choose acrylic‑capped resin; choose stone resin for a luxurious, robust finish.

Does the waste position matter and how do I pick the right one?

Yes, the waste can be centre or corner and needs to match your existing plumbing outlet and the enclosure shape; there are roughly 400 centre and 77 corner options in the range. For rectangular trays you'll often find a central waste aligns with existing pipework, while quadrant and offset quadrant trays commonly use a corner waste. If your floor waste location is fixed, select a tray with the same waste position to avoid additional pipework. You can also find tray accessories and riser kits to adapt runs where slight relocation is possible.

Should I choose a non‑slip tray or a decorative finish like slate or black?

If safety is a priority, non‑slip trays are a sensible choice, about 285 of the trays in the range include non‑slip surfaces, and some stone resin options combine texture with style. For a contemporary look you can choose black or slate‑effect trays, or greige and cream tones if you prefer a softer palette; white remains the most common option. Bear in mind textured non‑slip surfaces need gentle cleaners to keep their grip, whereas smooth acrylic surfaces wipe clean more easily. Match the finish to your bathroom's aesthetic and the users' mobility to get the right balance of style and safety.

What's the practical difference between low profile, raised and deep shower trays?

Low profile trays (typically 25–45mm high) sit almost level with the floor for a sleek, easy‑access look, ideal for modern bathrooms and wet rooms. Raised trays (around 90–140mm) give you extra depth for routing waste pipes under the tray without digging into the floor, useful if you can't lower joists. Deep or deep‑profile trays offer more internal water capacity and can suit shower systems that need more fall; they're less suited if you want a step‑free entry. Pick the height that matches your floor construction and accessibility needs.
