⛔️When a stepped cavity tray is missed — problems can follow.

⚠️We recently encountered a situation where no stepped cavity tray had been installed at a stepped roof/wall abutment.

💦The result was a vulnerable junction where water could enter the cavity and potentially lead to:

🔹 Damp pe*******on
🔹 Water tracking within the cavity
🔹 Damage to internal finishes
🔹 Increased risk of long-term deterioration
🔹 Costly remedial work if left untreated

💡The solution was to carefully assess the existing construction and retrofit a properly designed stepped cavity tray system, providing a clear path for any water entering the cavity to discharge safely through weep holes.

👍This is a good example of why cavity trays should be considered at the design stage and installed correctly during construction, rather than relying on remedial solutions later.

😇At Lisnastrain Cavity Trays, we manufacture quality stepped cavity trays designed for a range of wall, roof and abutment details.

✅ Family owned & managed
✅ Quality products
✅ Excellent service
✅ Value for money
✅ Manufactured with experience and practical knowledge

Get the cavity protection right first time — it can save a lot of problems later.

🏗️ From the Factory Floor to the Building Site

This is what goes into getting cavity tray details right.

These photos show a selection of Lisnastrain Cavity Trays and bespoke tray systems being prepared for dispatch — including stepped trays, abutment details and lead-attached components.

Every project can present different challenges. Wall construction, roof pitches, abutments, cavity widths and brick or block dimensions can all influence the cavity tray detail required.

At Lisnastrain Cavity Trays, we manufacture solutions designed around the project — rather than trying to make one standard detail fit every application.

🔹 Stepped cavity trays
🔹 Lead-attached cavity trays
🔹 Roof and wall abutment trays
🔹 Chimney tray systems
🔹 Bespoke cavity tray details
🔹 Solutions for brick and block construction

The purpose is simple: intercept moisture within the cavity and provide a controlled route for drainage to the exterior.

Good cavity tray detailing is a small part of a building project, but getting it wrong can lead to damp pe*******on, staining and expensive remedial work.

📦 Manufactured with care
🏗️ Built around the application

🌱 SUSTAINABILITY STARTS WITH BUILDING IT RIGHT

For architects, developers and main contractors, sustainability isn't simply about specifying environmentally friendly materials.

It's also about designing buildings to perform, preventing defects and reducing the need for future remedial work.

At Lisnastrain Cavity Trays, our cavity tray systems and bespoke products are designed around one important principle:

Protect the building for the long term.

🏗️ Prevent moisture-related problems
Correctly designed and installed cavity tray systems help manage water within masonry construction and protect vulnerable areas such as roof abutments, wall junctions and openings.

♻️ Reduce unnecessary remedial work
Moisture ingress can lead to damaged finishes, deterioration and costly repairs. Getting the cavity tray detail right at construction stage can help reduce the materials, labour and waste associated with future remedial work.

📐 Bespoke where required
Every building is different. Our ability to manufacture bespoke cavity trays and associated lead products allows solutions to be developed around the actual project detail.

🔧 Durability matters
A sustainable building is one that continues to perform throughout its intended service life. Good detailing, appropriate materials and correct installation all play a part.

🚛 Direct manufacturer supply
Lisnastrain Cavity Trays manufactures and supplies directly, providing a straightforward route from manufacturer to project and helping streamline procurement.

💷 Sustainability and whole-life cost go together
The cheapest solution isn't necessarily the most sustainable. A product that helps prevent defects and extend the effective performance of a building can provide value well beyond its initial purchase price.

BUILD BETTER. PROTECT BETTER. BUILD FOR THE LONG TERM

Technical protection where the building envelope is most vulnerable

At Lisnastrain Cavity Trays we manufacture more than standard cavity trays. We provide engineered solutions for some of the most technically demanding areas of masonry construction — including chimney abutments, roof junctions and bespoke leadwork.

🔹 Cavity Tray Systems
Our stepped cavity trays are designed to intercept moisture within the cavity and direct it safely towards the external face of the building through appropriate drainage and weep provision. Manufactured to suit different brick and block dimensions, they provide a practical solution for maintaining cavity drainage at critical locations.

🔹 Chimney Tray Systems
Chimney pe*******ons and abutments require particular attention to water management. Our chimney tray systems are designed to provide continuous protection around the chimney, helping prevent moisture tracking through the cavity and into the building.

🔹 Bespoke Lead Products
Where standard components aren't suitable, Lisnastrain can manufacture bespoke lead products to suit individual project requirements. From complex abutments and chimney details to specialist junctions, bespoke fabrication allows the solution to be tailored to the building rather than forcing the building to accommodate a standard component

Why specify Lisnastrain?

✔️ Manufactured for the construction industry
✔️ BBA-approved cavity tray systems
✔️ Bespoke solutions for complex details
✔️ Brick and block-size options
✔️ Stepped cavity tray configurations
✔️ Chimney and roof abutment solutions

🧱 What goes into a Lisnastrain Cavity Tray?

At Lisnastrain Cavity Trays, we manufacture our cavity trays using carefully selected, durable materials designed to provide long-term protection against water ingress at vulnerable points in the building envelope.

🔹 High-quality polypropylene – lightweight, durable and resistant to moisture, rot and corrosion.

🔹 Lead flashing – securely attached where required, providing excellent flexibility and durability at roof-to-wall junctions and other critical areas.

🔹 Strong, purpose-made construction – each tray is manufactured to provide a reliable cavity barrier and direct water safely towards the external face of the building.

🔹 Quality-controlled manufacturing – our trays are manufactured specifically for their intended application, helping provide consistency from the factory to the building site.

The result? A practical, durable cavity tray system designed to help prevent damp and protect the building for years to come.

🏗️ WHY USE A CAVITY TRAY?

Protect your building from damp before it becomes a problem!

Cavity trays play a vital role in preventing water pe*******on at vulnerable points in cavity wall construction, particularly above roof abutments, windows, doors and other openings.

💧 How do they work?

Cavity trays collect water that enters the cavity and direct it safely to the outside through weep holes, helping prevent moisture from reaching the inner leaf of the wall.

5 reasons to use cavity trays:

✅ Prevent damp*– Help stop water penetrating the internal walls.

✅ Protect your investment– Reduce the risk of costly damp repairs and damage to internal finishes.

✅ Improve building durability – Manage moisture at critical junctions in the building envelope.

✅ Meet good building practice – An essential consideration in properly detailed cavity wall construction.

✅ Save time on site – Preformed cavity trays simplify installation and provide consistent detailing.

🏡 Don't leave damp protection to chance. Get the detail right from the start!

At Lisnastrain Cavity Trays Ltd, we manufacture and supply BBA-approved cavity trays, with direct-from-factory supply across Ireland and a growing reach into the UK.

Quality products. Competitive prices. No middleman.
