shower
I have a shower over my bath, but due to the shape of the bath the shower curtain does not cover the entire length of the bath, so sometimes water is getting under the curtain and on to the carpet.
Can anyone suggest anything i can do to stop the water getting onto the floor, I've attached a photo to give you an idea of what it looks like
It's possible the water is getting around your shower, possibly where the tile meets the tub or pan (if you have one), or behind the fixtures, or even around the door (if any).
I would check all of these and recaulk where appropriate before going in for wholesale destruction. Try splashing water by hand/bucket on areas you might suspect and see if that leads to leaks.
Or maybe you even have leaky plumbing in the wall. Do you have access to see in there?
It is difficult to be certain, but removal of the screws at the top corners should allow the top crossbar to be removed. There may be other screws that join the sections of the frame, or once the top bar is removed, the side panels may be able to slide out. The tracks against the wall are probably held in by screws hidden under the side panels.
To get to a screw in a tight space like the top corner, you can use an offset screwdriver
You need to be careful in removing the panels. They may be heavy, and significant flexing may lead to breakage.

If your shower curtain can reach to the wall of the bath surround, a combination of shower curtain clips:
and splash guards should prevent most of the water from escaping your tub.
