Helping to refurbish (clean and paint) a house at the moment. It has a shower cubicle in the front bedroom. The cubicle looks like an expensive bit of kit, but possibly badly fitted. This would fit in with the rest of the house where there are a lot of fancy things but some bits are not well finished.
For this shower enclosure, I am pondering about the two small glass side panels either side of the door. Pictures
As I hope you can see, there are insets in the shower tray either side of the door where the glass panel fixings go.
To me they look as though the glass panels should be free draining from the outside then under the bottom of the glass into the shower tray. However the bottom is the inset is filled with horrible black mastic.
I don't know if this is why damp has spread around the outside onto the surrounding plaster, or if this is just poor care by the previous users.
Anyway, does anyone recognise this type of shower tray and know if there should be drainage space under the glass side panels?
Cheers
