Buy Shower Trays Online for Every Bathroom Layout
Every bathroom layout is different, so the best shower tray for your home will depend on the available space, the position of your waste pipe, the type of shower enclosure you want and the overall bathroom design.
A small en-suite may suit a square or quadrant shower tray, especially where floor space is limited. A larger family bathroom may benefit from a rectangular shower tray with a sliding shower door. A walk in shower area often works best with a long rectangular tray, a low profile finish and a simple glass panel.
At Home Bathrooms makes it easy to compare shower trays online. You can browse by shape, size, colour, finish and installation type, helping you narrow down your options before ordering. We also supply shower enclosures, shower doors, walk in shower screens, taps, showers, wall panels, bathroom furniture and accessories, so you can complete more of your bathroom project in one place.
Low Profile Shower Trays
Low profile shower trays are a popular choice for modern bathrooms because they sit close to the floor and create a sleek, minimal look. Many low profile trays are around 30mm, 40mm or 45mm high, depending on the design, giving your shower area a cleaner and more contemporary appearance.
A low profile shower tray can work well with frameless glass, black shower enclosures, brushed brass shower screens, sliding doors, hinged doors and walk in shower panels. The slim height helps the shower area feel less bulky, which is especially useful in smaller bathrooms where you want to keep the room feeling open.
Before choosing a low profile tray, check your drainage position and floor construction. In some homes, the waste pipe can be fitted below floor level. In other rooms, you may need a riser kit to lift the tray slightly and create space for pipework.
Stone Resin Shower Trays
Stone resin shower trays are a strong and durable option for many UK bathrooms. They are designed to feel solid underfoot, making them a practical choice for everyday showering. Stone resin trays are often chosen for their stability, smooth finish and long-lasting performance.
Many modern stone resin shower trays are finished with a tough surface that is easy to clean and suitable for busy family bathrooms. They can be used with a wide range of shower enclosures and are available in popular shapes such as square, rectangular and quadrant.
If you want a tray that feels reassuringly sturdy, stone resin is a dependable choice. It works well in main bathrooms, guest en-suites and shower rooms where you want a high-quality finish without making the design feel too complicated.
Square Shower Trays
Square shower trays are ideal for compact bathrooms, en-suites and smaller shower spaces. They offer a balanced footprint and can be paired with several enclosure types, including pivot doors, hinged doors, bi-fold doors and corner shower enclosures.
Common square tray sizes include 760mm, 800mm and 900mm, although availability will vary by product. A 900mm square shower tray can give you a more comfortable showering area, while an 800mm square tray can be useful when the room is tight.
Square shower trays are particularly effective in corner installations. They keep the shower area neat, easy to plan and suitable for many standard bathroom layouts.
Rectangular Shower Trays
Rectangular shower trays are one of the most versatile choices. They are suitable for larger shower enclosures, alcove shower spaces and walk in shower designs. A rectangular tray gives you more length than a square tray, which can make daily showering feel more comfortable.
This shape works well with sliding shower doors, hinged doors, side panels and walk in glass screens. Longer rectangular shower trays can help you create a spacious showering area without needing a full wetroom floor.
If you are replacing a bath with a large shower, a rectangular shower tray can be a practical option. Sizes such as 1200mm, 1400mm, 1600mm and 1700mm are often chosen for bath-to-shower conversions, subject to room dimensions and product availability.
Quadrant Shower Trays
Quadrant shower trays are designed for corner shower enclosures. Their curved front edge helps save space while still giving you a comfortable showering area. This makes them a strong choice for en-suites, small bathrooms and cloakroom shower rooms.
A quadrant shower tray is usually paired with a matching quadrant shower enclosure. The curved glass follows the shape of the tray, creating a neat corner unit that does not project too far into the room.
If space is limited, a quadrant tray can help improve movement around the bathroom. You may also want to consider an offset quadrant shower tray if you need extra showering space along one wall, although you should always check the enclosure and tray are compatible before ordering.
Anti-Slip Shower Trays
Anti-slip shower trays are designed to provide extra reassurance underfoot. They are a sensible choice for family bathrooms, accessible shower rooms and homes where safety is a priority.
A textured or slip-resistant surface can help reduce the risk of slips during showering. This can be helpful for children, older users and anyone who wants a more secure showering experience. Anti-slip trays can still look stylish, with many modern designs offering clean lines, low profiles and contemporary finishes.
When choosing an anti-slip shower tray, consider how easy the surface will be to clean. A good tray should balance grip with practical maintenance, especially in hard water areas where limescale can build up over time.
Slate Effect Shower Trays
Slate effect shower trays are perfect if you want a more textured, design-led finish. They can bring depth and character to the shower area, giving the bathroom a premium look without the maintenance of real stone.
Popular finishes include white, grey and black, depending on the range. A black slate effect shower tray can look striking with black shower glass and matching black brassware. A grey slate effect tray can soften the space and pair well with stone-effect tiles or wall panels. A white slate effect tray gives you texture while keeping the room bright and simple.
Slate effect trays are often used in walk in shower designs because they create a more finished, furniture-like feel underfoot. They can help the shower area become a design feature rather than a purely functional zone.
Linear Drain Shower Trays
Linear drain shower trays feature a long, narrow waste cover rather than a traditional round waste. This gives the tray a sleek, modern look and can suit larger walk in shower areas particularly well.
A linear drain can also help create a more streamlined finish, especially when paired with minimal glass panels and simple wall coverings. Some trays include colour-matched or finish-matched waste covers, while others use chrome, black or brushed brass covers.
Before ordering, check the waste position and drainage requirements. Your installer will need to confirm that the tray can be fitted correctly with suitable fall, access and pipework.
Shower Tray Riser Kits
A shower tray riser kit raises the tray from the floor and creates space underneath for waste pipes. This can be very useful when the bathroom floor cannot be cut into, or when the existing pipework needs to run above floor level.
Riser kits usually include adjustable legs and panel sections to cover the raised area. This makes installation more flexible and can avoid extra building work in some situations.
If you are fitting a shower tray in an upstairs bathroom, a renovation project or a property with awkward plumbing, a riser kit may make the installation easier. Always check that the kit is suitable for your tray size and tray shape before ordering.
Choosing the Right Shower Tray Size
Before you buy a shower tray online, measure your available space carefully. Measure the width, depth and height around the shower area, along with the position of doors, windows, radiators, towel rails and bathroom furniture.
You should also think about how the shower door will open. A hinged or pivot door needs clear space in front of the enclosure. A sliding shower door is useful where floor space is limited. A walk in shower panel needs enough tray length to reduce splash outside the showering area.
The most common shower tray sizes include compact options such as 760mm and 800mm, medium sizes such as 900mm, 1000mm and 1200mm, plus larger walk in sizes such as 1400mm, 1600mm and 1700mm. The right size depends on your room, your enclosure and how much showering space you want.
Matching Your Shower Tray With a Shower Enclosure
Your shower tray and shower enclosure must be compatible. The tray shape, size and handed design need to match the shower screen or enclosure you choose.
A square tray usually works with square enclosures, pivot doors, hinged doors and bi-fold doors. A rectangular tray can suit sliding doors, hinged doors, alcove installations and walk in panels. A quadrant tray needs a matching quadrant enclosure with the same radius and dimensions.
Colour and finish matter as well. A white tray gives you a clean, classic look. A black tray can tie in with black shower frames and black taps. A grey slate effect tray can coordinate with stone-style wall panels, floor tiles and brushed brass finishes.
Shower Tray Wastes and Drainage
Many shower trays are supplied with a compatible waste, although you should always check the product details before ordering. The shower waste allows water to drain away safely and must be fitted correctly to avoid leaks, slow drainage and unpleasant smells.
Waste position can vary between trays. Some wastes sit in the corner, some sit along one edge, and linear trays often feature a longer drain channel. Before you order, check your existing pipework and ask your installer to confirm the best waste position for your bathroom.
Good drainage relies on correct installation. The tray needs to sit level, the pipework needs the right fall, and the waste must remain accessible for maintenance where possible.
How to Choose the Best Shower Tray for Your Bathroom
Start with your layout. Decide where the shower will sit, how much space you have and which enclosure style you prefer. Then choose a tray shape that fits the space comfortably.
Next, think about tray height. A low profile tray is ideal for a modern, minimal look. A raised tray with a riser kit may be more practical when pipework needs to run above floor level.
Consider safety and cleaning. Anti-slip surfaces are helpful in busy households, while smooth stone resin trays are easy to wipe down. Slate effect finishes add texture and style, but you should still choose a product that suits your cleaning routine.
Finally, think about the full shower area. Your tray should work with your shower enclosure, shower valve, shower head, wall panels, tiles, flooring and bathroom furniture. A well-matched selection will make your bathroom feel planned and cohesive.

Frequently Asked Questions About Shower Trays
-
What type of shower tray is best?

-
What is a low profile shower tray?
A low profile shower tray sits close to the floor for a slimmer, more modern look. It can make your shower area feel cleaner and more open, especially when paired with glass shower panels or frameless enclosures.
-
Do shower trays come with wastes?
Many shower trays are supplied with a waste, but this varies by product. Always check the product listing before ordering so you know exactly what is included.
-
What shower tray shape should I choose?
Choose a square tray for compact corner spaces, a rectangular tray for larger enclosures or walk in showers, and a quadrant tray where you want to save space in a corner.
-
Are anti-slip shower trays worth it?
Anti-slip shower trays are worth considering if you want extra grip underfoot. They are especially useful in family bathrooms, accessible shower rooms and homes with older users.
-
Can I fit a shower tray without a riser kit?
You can fit some shower trays directly to the floor if there is enough space below for the waste and pipework. If pipework needs to run above floor level, a riser leg and panel kit may be needed.

Can I use a shower tray for a walk in shower?
Yes, many walk in showers use a long rectangular or slate effect shower tray. This can be easier to install than a fully tanked wetroom floor while still creating an open, spacious shower area.
