Our shower base came with a non-slip finish but after a few years it is now not as non-slip as it was. Not sure how long any non-slip ever lasts but it won't be forever!1

Getting cut to size would be too expensive @WelshmansDaughter but you're right, we might need to just buy an anti-slip thing.
A good point @joedenise though would be nice to have a few years of it!
There is nothing but shower trays @KajiKita, shower trays are our life now
Oh my days @Watty1. It's gonna take a lot of surveys to raise £895 but needs must

I have an ugly anti slip mat for my shower so will be watching your progress closely for a more attractive option.
