Shower cabins

A shower cabin looks like a ready-made product, but the result depends on wall geometry, tray level, drainage, glass fixing and sealing. A mistake in any of these areas quickly becomes a leak, misaligned doors or a bad drain smell.

What this group of jobs includes

  • Installation. Cabins, corners, hydroboxes, shower panels, doors and trays.
  • Repair. Rollers, rails, seals, hinges, glass, drains and connections.
  • Removal. Careful dismantling of the old cabin or tray without unnecessary tile damage.
  • Sealing. Silicone, wall joints, glass base, tray edges and drain areas.

What matters before booking

  • Opening size and geometry. Walls are rarely perfectly parallel.
  • Base type. Ready tray, tiled tray, floor drain or bathtub edge.
  • Waterproofing condition. A cabin does not fix a failed wet area under the tile.
  • Drain access. Without access, future service becomes difficult.

FAQ

Can a new cabin be installed on an old tray?

Sometimes yes, if the tray is level, rigid, leak-free and the right size. But the old tray is often the real source of problems.

Why does a shower start leaking after installation?

Usually because of poor geometry, wrong slope, weak sealing or door seals that do not close properly.

Do I need a plumber or a glass installer?

For ready-made cabins and plumbing connections, usually a plumber. Custom glass may require a glazing specialist.
