Why We Build Custom Concrete Shower Bases — Not Plastic Trays

Why We Build Custom Concrete Shower Bases — Not Plastic Trays

At TILE-IGOS, we don’t use cheap plastic trays. We build your shower base from scratch — using concrete, professional slope, and a full waterproofing system.

Because when it comes to showers, the base is everything.

Why we use custom concrete:

  1. 🛠️ Stronger and longer-lasting
  2. ✅ Perfect slope for drainage — no puddling
  3. 💧 Fully waterproofed with Schluter® or RedGard
  4. 🧱 Works with any tile size or layout
  5. ♿ Great for curbless or walk-in showers
  6. 🧩 Custom shape to fit your bathroom perfectly

What the process looks like:

  1. Install cement board and curb framing
  2. Build slope with dry-pack concrete
  3. Apply full waterproofing membrane (KERDI, RedGard)
  4. Tile with precision and seal with grout + silicone
  5. Clean finish with aluminum trim if needed

Most plastic pans shift, crack, or leak over time.Our bases are permanent, custom-fit, and built to perform.

We build it once — and build it right.
