Keep water from running down wall on floor when showering

Did you use clear bathroom caulking in the seams of your surround? If there is water getting on the floor it could be the way you installed the panel.

The outside seam? Are they pulling the shower curtain far enough so the tub is fully contained?

You need to caulk the seam/gap. it seals the the seam and creates a water stress break to prevent the water from traveling.

Can you add a shower curtain if you don't have one already? You can use a tension rod if you don't have a shower rod installed. As a stopgap, try putting an extra towel on the floor or having them take baths until you get it fixed.

Is the shower curtain liner on the inside of the tub and being pulled all the way to close any gaps.

Is it possible to post a couple of pictures to show exactly what you’re dealing with?

Make sure the shower curtain is wrapped all the way around the back of the shower

Can you get some caulk in that space? Make sure that area is completely dry first or the caulk will fail.

Hello Audrey,

Redirecting the shower heads might help!!

Could you drape a shower liner or something over that spot for the time being? Maybe see if a contractor or someone could adjust it or fix it up tighter.

Hi, Audrey,

Is it possible that the tub was not installed correctly and is therefore compounding the problem by making water run toward outside edges? I had that problem, and had to resort to dampening front wall edge above tub to insure fabric shower liner would cling to wall, top to where tub met.

It was also necessary to place a weighted plastic bottle on top of tub at the front outer corner, to hold shower liner in place, creating a valley/waterfall effect to get water redirected into tub.

As an added measure, I place several hand towels on the floor where water was escaping (I know, it sounds like a job for Weather Tech car liners...😩.

Worse yet, shower head was causing water to strike rear wall, so it was necessary to have a very wide liner (with magnets) which could be drawn across part of rear of tub area and attach to the tub, to preclude water escaping out the back!

I sympathize with your dilemma!
