We are having 300 by 600 tiles on the floor and have been advised we need grates. Got some pricing sent to us today as we have prestart DAY 2 tomorrow..... Yes that's right DAY 2! we have two prices for the ensuite as one is for the shower recess and the other for the ensuite floor waste. It says ~ provide urban series stainless steel grates 75mm wide base channel and polished top grate in lieu of standard chrome waste $760 and $2000 for the shower recess!!!!!! That's a lot of money for grates Can you supply your own? We bought the small square tile insert drains for around $50 each from regal plumbtec in malaga. Guessing they have the long drains too or even buy online? http://www.drainsonline.com.au/ Hopefully they have a more reasonable and cheaper solution for u!

We have 300 x 300 and probably should have been advised we needed them - especially in our walk in hobless ensuite shower. To get the fall was a nightmare and in the end we compromised and now have a small 10mm step down into the shower. Whilst it is barely noticable now we are in if i had my time again i would go the grate drain.

Glad to say the $2000 was a mistake and we only have to pay $760 for the grate. Now I'm just hoping the costing come in under $20000!!!! Although I'm scared they won't.
