Whether you have a B&Q (Cooke & Lewis), Wickes, or a bespoke Aqualisa curved bath, the radius is critical. Most generic seals are too rigid for these UK standards.
What is a p shaped seal?
A p shaped shower screen seal—often called a seal for curved shower screen over baths—is a clear strip designed to fit the bottom of your screen perfectly.
A professional seal creates a watertight barrier. No more puddles on your floor and no risk of water dripping through floorboards. A proper job for a dry home.
Buying guide: choosing the right seal
Choosing a pre-moulded drip strip is similar to picking any bottom shower door seal, with one vital difference: it must match the curved glass.
