Grumpy needs help!

Help need guys if possible. Currently set to tile a bathroom, have stripped out old tiles, reboarded and now ready to start tiling. Bath previously had an under tile sealing piece fitted so prior to start I obtained some Genesis Seal Plus as a replacement. Unfortunately, the span of the bath sealing section is not big enough. The old piece that was discarded was a simple L section piece of PVC that had been glued in with what looks like vinyl floor adhesive.

I really need to find a bath seal that has at least a 30mm span from wall (behind tile) to bath top.

I need to get it tomorrow or I can't carry on, any ideas?:uhoh2:

What about either... another L of some-type from the upvc door section of B&Q. Maybe a strip of timber that you can fix to the wall under the tiles that the bath can but-up to if it's not too shaped... which you can tank and tile.

I can't think of anything else off the top of my head mate. What's it doing so far away from the wall?

Thanks for the help guys, I have been scouring the net looking for PVC Lsection but couldn't find anything, never thought of looking at uPVC doors and such. Will have a look tomorrow in B&Q and the like.

Good idea about the quadrant tiles Dave, I will look at that as well, see what I can find.

Those quandrant tiles are Johnsons Crystal I think.. available from Topps (or used to be a few years ago).

Yes dan mate they are johnsons /crystal....they dont always suit every job but they have pre-mitred corners and finished end pieces as well..they usually come in a kit form with a tube of Silicon as well.....

Good pointer Dan, cheers
