Before

After

Was sick of water getting all over the bathroom floor. Picked up a roll of Safety Guard from E-Mart and cut into thin strips. It works, but not sure how long the adhesive will last - at least it's a temporary fix. Smile

Ha, yes I live a life of luxury. But what's the point of a shower door if it doesn't serve its purpose? Majesticmako, no I don't live there.

I did the exact same thing at my last apartment using a long wooden plank thing. It worked great. My friend thought it was hilarious me down on my knees caulking!!! Laughing Embarassed

Bingo! There should be two. One in the shower stall, and one under the sink.

More than likely wouldn't make a huge difference, as the water would still seep out under the door. My last place at Doosan We've Centium got it right by placing the shower booth a step down from the rest of the washroom.

Yeah Jane, I considered caulking but the thing was, I would've had to buy the caulking, the caulking gun, and whatever I was going to lay down. On the other hand, the Safety Guard was 5,000W Wink

It might be my next step if this doesn't last. What would you recommend other than the wooden plank?

Looks like a nice bathroom, ignoring the idiocy of the design.
