    Water leaking over side of tub when showering
    I recently removed sliding doors on our shower and put up a shower curtain but now water drips over the side of the tub at either end near the walls when the shower is used. The water runs along the edges of the tub and drips of the edge. Plastic "splash guards" have been useless. Any simple solutions would be appreciated.

    Clue dude, either put the doors back on. Put caucking or cock whatev that stuff is . Then make sure the spout where the water comes out is positoned to where if the water is on its not hitting the edge move it over some, and THIRD. MAKE SURE THE SHOWER CURTAIN IS INSIDE THE TUB.

    NOY-SO- HANDY - MAN :: I have used 9Silcone , white) start sat very end of tub, against wall, make at least 1/4 " up to 1/2" Row ,curve it back towards tub about 8" to12" long . Do both ends that way ,and it does work . The pices you have been using will let water seep under. Also try to keep the water from shower head pointed towards inside wall. F.B.E.HOPE this helps . Have a dry day. HA HA
