Shower Tray - Resin Stone V Resin Polymer

Hi all

I am ripping out an old shower 760 x 760 fitted to a larger alcove with sloping tiled side ledges, am am hoping to fit a larger tray (900mm square x 45mm high).

The alcove size is 880mm and has plastered wasll on the left and right sides and a 18mm plywood rear wall. I will need to recess the tray into the side wall, will I get enough clearance by removing the plaster and render back to the breeze block walls? I will be raising the tray on a plinth topped with 18mm thick ply.

What are peoples thoughts on the merits of resin stone versus resin polymer (Resinlite) shower trays, both are ABS capped. I think that the lower weight of the resinlite tray would make it easier to position but am wondering about their strength compared to the normal resin stone ones.

Cheers

Mark

since mine sits on a bed of sand and cement anyway..it weighs a LOT.

Make sure it don't FLEX. cos that's what breaks the sealing to it.
