Topic: shower floor mat Posted: 16 Aug 2017 at 6:16pm |
Were you able to cut the dri-deck tiles to fit your rpod? I'd like to purchase some but our shower pan is not square.

No, they don't, and they look at you like you have holes in your head when you ask for it! Got mine from mrgrabbar.com and the service was super fast. Of course they are in FL and so am I, but they shipped immediately. Trim it so it is a nice tight fit, otherwise it will slip when you step on it.

Does anyone know if any retailer like Home Depot, Walmart or Lowe's carry Dri-Dek or equivalent?

I bought four squares of dri dek, put them together and trimmed them to fit with scissors, rounded corners, too.

I tried to use a teak mat in my R-Pod, but found that it tended to slide around on the smooth plastic floor of the shower pan. Enough, in fact, that I was worried about it flying out from under my feet. It was pretty, though. If you decide on using a wooden mat...try to find some rubber
water-proof 'nubs' to install on the
bottom of the wooden lathes to keep the mat from sliding.
I ended up using a vinyl-rubber shower mat from Wal-Mart that has small suction cups on its bottom. The mat has an open weave so that water can readily drain through and the suction cups keep the mat slightly raised so water drains away easily. It also has an anti-bacterial coating. Because it was vinyl, it was easy to cut to fit. The suction cups do not stick down too tightly, so it is also easy to remove to clean the pan.

How many 12 x 12 squares does it take to cover the bathroom floor? We don't have our pod yet so I can't measure.
Thanks,
