    The bath panel on our corner bath needs replacing as it’s broken.

    I don’t really want to replace the whole bath as that’s still fine.

    Has anyone got any suggestions on how to replace it? 
    Could it be that bathroom has been retiled since bath and panel where originally fitted,so could new tiles be causing panel not to sit correctly now?
    Yes that’s what’s happened. But it was cracked as well, and no longer fits in place.

    The bath panel was carpeted in one house we viewed.
    Did it have a G Plan Magazine Rack as well, do not see much of that these days either.
  • As mentioned earlier, use wood.
    That looks really good. How did you get the frame’s curve?

    Lots of bits of wood I had about the place sawn & planed to the shape of the bath to form frames top and bottom, then nail the tongue and groove to it.
    Tall, dark & handsome. Well two out of three ain't bad.
