Please can anybody identify this bath?

I need to replace the bath panel on my P bath, but it came with the house and I don't know what type it is. It has a fairly small bulge for the shower end of the bath, so a lot of p bath panels wouldn't fit. I've checked the most popular bathroom places with no luck.

Thanks

Have you taken the panel off and looked for any evidence on the underside/sides of the bath? I know our last one came with some stickers under it but they were loosely attached and think the plumber pulled them off when he installed.

If you remove the panel, you should be able to see the side & underneath of the bath.  You may be lucky and find a sticker or some engraving/stamping that'll give you the manufacturer and maybe even the model.

No guarantees, of course, but if you're going to be removing the panel anyway then there's nothing lost by having a quick look.

If all else fails, how old is the house?  If it's reasonably new-ish, and if the house builders are still in business, you could try giving them a call - they must have a record of which bathrooms were standard fitment in which model of house.  I'm assuming here that the house is part of an estate or similar, not some lovely old farmhouse or whatever.

(Though even this won't be of much help if the previous owners had changed the bathroom from what was originally fitted by the builders).

Can you slide a large piece of paper under the shower screen?

If you can and draw a line round the shape it would give you a template to take to bathroom shops and try against the baths. A quick way to see.

Measurements of course.

Designs have been coming and going hugely what with the pandemic, businesses going bust and others taking over, new styles bought in at the price places can afford.  I had to have what I could get for my new bathroom

Why do you need to replace it? Is it damaged? I can see a small crack on the top near the curve.

How about this

Close, but it's different. Thanks tho.

I need to replace it because it's gone yellow and a bit cracked in a few places. If it was fibreglass, I'd repir it and paint it up, but I cant see that working on the plastic. Or is that wrong?

You sound a bit like my son (bold) he seems to be able to fix anything 

What my son would do is use the panel you have a a mould and make a fibreglass one 

worth thinking about ?

If you just want to tart it up for a while whilst you find the right one, try covering it in sticky-back plastic (fablon, DC Fix etc). Its not overly expensive, probably £10 for a suitably sized roll. We just did our bath panel after it cracked. We filled the crack in as best we could, then covered the whole panel. Ok you can still see evidence of the crack underneath the plastic, but only if you look carefully.
