Shower trays

Can anyone recommend a good source for stone cast shower trays (not acrylic filled with cement)?  East Anglia or south east in general.

What size are you after?

I used to buy the cheap stone resin trays from Plumb Center (£30 for a 760mm) but I had so many trays where the actual base came out further than the sides that I decided to only fit Alstone trays. Same as a normal stone resin Tray but the finish seems to be so much better. You can level up 2 sides and then the other 2 are good aswell.

What area are you ?

I'm building near Huntingdon but live in Belgium!. Won't be ordering for a few months but want to get my list of sources sorted out now while I have some spare time.

I'll be looking for three trays wich I think will be..
90x80
100x80
120x80

I'll take a look at the companies you mentioned.

Ideally I'm looking for shallow trays that can be mounted almost flush with the surface - so you step down 1-2" into them rather than up 4" or something like that. All the floors a beam and block + insulation and screed so it should be easy enough to do this.

Have a look at the Bette super shallow trays, they are pressed steel and are fantasic trays to fit.
