A base for a shower stall comprising a first layer of fiber glass and resin, and layer of filament material, and a second layer of fiberglass and resin. The base also includes at least one external edge, an external opening, and a thickness that increases from the at least one external edge to the internal opening. Included is a shower stall comprising a plurality of shower walls, a sloped floor attached to the shower walls, and a base attached to the slope floor. Also included is a method of attaching a base to a shower stall. The method comprises creating the base by applying fiberglass, resin, and filament material to a mold, engaging the base to the shower stall by removably attached the mold to the shower stall, curing the base, and removing the mold from the shower.

What is claimed is: 1. A base for supporting the floor of a shower stall, the floor of said shower stall having a perimeter and a drain point within the bounds of said perimeter and the floor sloping from said perimeter to said drain point, and said shower stall having at least one flanged edge, the base comprising: a sloped top shaped and sized to substantially mirror the slope of the shower stall floor; a substantially flat surface positioned opposite the top, wherein the flat surface is substantially flush with the flanged edge; at least one external edge; an internal opening; a first layer of fiberglass and resin, a layer of filament material; a second layer of fiberglass and resin; and wherein the top slopes from the at least one external edge to the internal opening. 2. The base of claim 1, wherein each layer has a thickness that decreases from the at least one external edge to the internal opening. 3. A base for a low threshold shower stall comprising: a sloped top: a substantially flat bottom: a thickness of less than three inches between said top and bottom; a first layer of fiberglass and resin, a layer of filament material; and a second layer of fiberglass and resin. 4. The base of claim 3, wherein the thickness is less than 2 inches. 5. The base of claim 3, further including at least one external edge; an internal opening; and wherein the top slopes from the at least one external edge to the internal opening. 6. The base of claim 3, wherein each layer has a thickness that decreases from the at least one external edge to the internal opening. 7. A shower stall comprising: a plurality of shower walls; a sloped floor attached to the shower walls; and a base attached to the sloped floor and including a first layer of fiberglass and resin, a layer of ifiament material, and a second layer of fiberglass and resin, said base having a substantially flat surface positioned substantially perpendicular to said walls. 8. The shower stall of claim 7, wherein the sloped floor further includes a plurality of flanged edges, a drain opening, and an incline, wherein the incline of the sloped floor decreases from the flanged edges to the drain opening. 9. The shower stall of claim 8, wherein base further includes a thickness; at least one external edge; an internal opening; and wherein the base decreases in thickness from the at least one external edge to the internal opening. 10. The shower stall of claim 9, wherein the drain opening is aligned with the internal opening. 11. The shower stall of claim 7, wherein the base includes a flat surface located opposite the attachment of the base to the sloped floor. 12. The shower stall of claim 7, wherein each layer includes a width that decreases from the at least one external edge to the internal opening. 13. The shower stall of claim 7, wherein the base further includes a top that conforms to the shape of the sloped floor.
