Shower bases & drainages

Description of the material

Tycroc shower base is a high-quality alternative to traditional tiling, which is made of prefabricated Tycroc waterproof building boards embedded with integral drainage to create level-access tiled shower areas. This system is supplied ready to install, which reduces the working time while offering a perfect substrate for plastering mosaic, natural stone or ceramics. Shower bases also provide thermal insulation and are completely impermeable to water guaranteeing them to be totally leak-proof. The set also includes a drain trap. Our selection includes models, both with a common and linear drain body.

Shower base without drainage

ST100_mõõt_EN

Tycroc shower base without drainage enables to use a desirable drain, installing it to the shower base centre.

Tile slopes towards the centre 1:50.

Single slope board

Tycroc single slope board can be used for extending the floor slope outside the shower cabin or use it as shower base with desirable drain. The board can also be used on balcony floors, ensuring waterproofness and the required slope of the floor.

Tile slope within 1500 mm is 1:100.

Characteristics and advantages

The complete Tycroc waterproofing system should definitely include the shower base. When using our shower base, there will be no need to make floor slopes: in comparison to concrete casting, our solution saves space and is much lighter. Floor heating cables can be placed right on top of Tycroc products.

Place of use

Tycroc shower bases are a specifically developed solution for covering the base of shower corners and cabins. Tycroc shower bases and drainages can be used also in other places, i.e. in steam saunas. There is no need to make a separate slope in the floor, the Tycroc shower bases can be installed onto every surface, and the only essential thing is the right location for drainage.
