Folding shower screen - seal

Is it possible to replace the rubber seal at the base of a folding shower screen? It stops water seeping between the bath and the screen - except mine is disintegrating!

Thanks for any advice

    Yes! When I moved into my flat, I had one of these screens in white. Except the seal was black with mould! B&Q sell them in the shower screen aisle. About £10 I think and quite easy to replace, although the screen had to be removed - couple of screws though.

    Its comes in black or white.

    I get quite a lot of call outs for these and although re[placing them mis fine, it will only go again. They are the weak spot in over bath shower screens. A longer term solution is to permenantly silicone the bottom of the screen to the bath or to do away with it all together and use a shower curtain.
