Default shower tray

Where can I buy a 1200x 800 or 900 shower tray - reasonable quality?
B&Q do them but you have to wait 2/3 weeks (longer I think).
There are dodgy looking ones on ebay, and v expensive ones from
"bathroom studios" but I want what B&Q would have - but now.

cheers

I think Wickes do them (stone resin ones, do you mean?).

Don't discount going to a specialist bathroom shop - as well as the
pretentious 'Justin and Colin'-type outlets which you're thinking of,
there are plenty of them around which just sell regular, everyday stuff
at prices which compete with the sheds.

A lot of these shops use stuff from Bathroom Express (indeed, a lot of
these shops' catalogues _are_ bathroom express', but with the shop's own
cover!). They have a website but a lot of stuff in the catalogue is not
on it, so it's best to see the paper cat (which you can get them to send
you if you visit the site). Prices are quite reasonable, and you can
order direct or via your local shop: with the latter you may be able to
negotiate a better price than you'd pay direct.

Are you thinking of Jules and Sandy? Yes you are right - today I went
to the nearest "Bona Showers" and found just the thing at a reasonable
price with 3 days delivery. And I'd spent hours on the net
unnecessarily.
There's an opening here for a Terry Thomas type with a shop called
"Absolute Showers" (older DIYers will know what I'm on about!)

cheers
