    The simple reality is that you wont get a quality shower screen and tray for £300. The reality quality products with 8mm or thicker glass wont be less than atleast twice that price plus tray.

    Average mira flight tray -middle of the road stuff £80-£200

    Decent branded enclosure from mira, merlyn, showerlux ect will pretty much double your estimate

    Manhattan used to be reasonable but since there administration there's nothing at the bottom end of the market I'd recommend. Some like Lakes and flair but I find there products awkward to fit and cheaply made , some of the Lakes items don't even have adjustment on the sliders!

    I recently had a new shower enclosure and tray fitted and the plumber recommended an ebay seller called surfingshowers. I was really happy with the shower, it looks great and seems to be good quality. Was also very cheap but I'm not a tradesperson so might be worth a look and asking someone who knows what they think.

    Thank you, I am lucky hubby can do all works and don't charge :rotfl:
    I brought a shower tray this morning £87 B&Q but not the enclosure. Brought the toilet £270 and wall hung vanity unit with draws £217 used son inlaws trade discount made it a bit cheaper. Already got all wall and floor tiles so just shower enclosure and mixer taps. Mind you want a loan for those :rotfl:
