Popular Shower Base Sizes

Choosing the correct shower base size depends on your available floor space, shower screen configuration and bathroom layout.

When selecting your base, always confirm the waste position, shower screen dimensions and plumbing layout before installation.

Stone Shower Bases vs Acrylic Shower Bases

Both materials perform well. But each suits different renovation goals.

If you're creating a contemporary bathroom with a frameless screen, a stone shower base Australia collection often delivers a more premium finish.

Walk-In Shower Base Options

Walk-in showers continue to be one of Australia's most popular bathroom upgrades. Pairing a low-profile shower tray with a linear shower base channel creates a clean, open appearance while improving water drainage.

These systems work particularly well with:

• Frameless shower screens
• Large-format floor tiles
• Accessible bathroom designs
• Minimalist bathroom renovations
• Planning a Walk-In Shower?

How to Install a Shower Base on a Concrete Floor

One of the most common questions homeowners ask is how to install a shower base on a concrete floor.

In most renovations, the process includes:

• Preparing a level concrete slab.
• Confirming waste pipe location before installation.
• Dry-fitting the shower base to check alignment.
• Installing according to the manufacturer's instructions using the recommended adhesive or mortar where required.
• Connecting the waste and waterproofing before tiling.

For the best long-term performance, installation should always comply with Australian waterproofing requirements and be completed by a licensed plumber where plumbing work is involved.
