    How to fix water leaking onto the floor when shower is running?
    I have a new home. I discovered that while my shower in my guest bathroom is running, eventually, water pools on the edge of the tub and continues until it falls over. With the shower running for 20 minutes with no one in it with the shower curtain lining inside of the tub, I could have a significant puddle on my floor. I have had the tub reinstalled, changed the shower head, removed the shower caddy... I can't figure out what's happening. I don't want to install a shower door, but I need to know what I can do to divert the water from reaching to point that it falls to the floor. I have the same shower head in my master bathroom, but that is a Jacuzzi tub and has a slanted edge on the wall with the faucet, so it may be possible that the shower water does the same thing, but since the edge is slanted inward toward the tub, it doesn't leak. Please advice!! I would like to rent out a room, but don't feel comfortable doing so since the guest bathroom shower is giving me such grief.

    Lowe's sells "tub guards." They are fairly large, and come in a two pack. (One for each end of the tub.) Peel and stick...and there ya go!
