If there is old sealant around your shower tray, it’s crucial to remove it completely. Use a utility knife or scraper to carefully cut and peel away the old sealant. Be cautious not to damage the shower tray or tiles. After removing the majority of the sealant, use sandpaper to smooth out any remaining residue. Clean the area with isopropyl alcohol or acetone to ensure a clean surface for the new sealant to adhere to. Step 5: Use the access hatch to connect the waste trap to the outlet pipe and the outlet pipe to the waste pipe underneath the tray. Step 2: Cut an access hatch in your floorboards next to the shower tray so that you can easily access the underneath of the shower tray for maintenance to the pipes.
