Shattered Shower Panel

Post by redwall99 » Sat Sep 18, 2010 11:59 am

We have a standard rectangular shower - two sliding door at the front and a fixed glazed panel at the side (two tiled walls on the other sides. Recently the fixed glazed side panel - went 'bang' and shattered.

I contacted the supplier (showerlux) but unfortunately they were unable to supply a new panel (obsolete) and the guy was very dismissive about any solution.

The shower was only re-tiled and plumbed a year ago - so I am not keen to go gor another rebuild - is there any way that I can get more safety glass panels made / or cut to size - or what other alternatives to fill this side panel? Thanks for any suggestions.[/b]

redwall99,
Any glazing firm will be able to order you a toughened glass panel.

I would suggest you check any literature to see what warranty is offered and persevere as this damage is often a manufacturing fault, and I have seen several free repairs done even after several years.

Remember, sales of goods guarantees can legally extend long after the traditional one year period.
