do b&q do a decent sized bath trim?..

[Mr T]

Just about to go sort that bath out and need to get a 20mm quad trim

 

[Ian]

uPVC Quadrant White (L) 2500 (W) 19mm, 5055149983597

Thats the biggest they do, not specifically for a bath but it'll do the job.

 

[Mr T]

I couldnt find any quad bigger than 10mm there so i settled for a right angle bath trim it will do the job hopefully lol cheers matey

 

[Mr T]

this is the stuff mate was cheap but its flexible so should be ok with all the movement going on lol Image - TinyPic - Free Image Hosting, Photo Sharing & Video Hosting http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=alksd2&s=5

Looks like a tidy job, have a house point

 

[Mr T]

:hurray:

 

[Mr T]

do you think that will be ok for a couple of years maybe? they have not long had it re-tiled by a handyman due to water getting through to the plaster board.

Reading between the lines here - is there a shower above the bath Mr Tiler? If so then replacing a bath trim wont solve the problem.

 

[Mr T]

yes mate... whats the solution to bring the wall forward?

 

[andy8758]

The problem is almost certainly that the wall is not waterproof and has not been tanked. Replacing the bath trim wont stop the leak. All the tiles above the bath have to come off. If the wall is perfectly flat and dry then tank it. If not use Marmox (or similar waterproof boards) - you can screw 6mm boards to wall and then tile over. If you have not used waterproof boards before - check manufacturer specs - they usually require screw fixing with plastic washers, screwed in rawl plugs and sealed boards joints and screw holes with Silicon. To ensure boards fix perfectly flat Marmox also recommend tile adhesive spread on wall with 6mm trowel so that board edges are level.
