Side panel for Bathtub

[gelegeta]

Hi,

Can someone help identify this bathtub please as I need to replace the side and back panel but can't find what it is.

I know it's a P Shape but all the ones I have seen have the taps at the end of the bath and not on the side like this one, also the dimension of the bath tub is standard 1700.

Kind Regards

Hi,

Thank you for your reply,

That is very close to what I have however I noticed the 'Circle' part is more flat than curved than the one I have However that being said if i can't find the same bath tub, are the side panels unique to each bath or can they be used to fit multiple types of bath tubs.

I have attached further photos which i hope may help along with a faint number that was on the side of the bath which i'm unable to see much

Get a piece of Foamex and make one

Create a timber frame the best you can to the contour of the bath and then slap the Foamex on. Have done it before and was a piece of cake

Dirt cheap too

Fowlerboi that sounds like a great solution - what thickness board do you use?
And where can you get suitable size for bath panel?

That's not a bad idea and one i may have to consider as i can't find this bath anywhere online!. If i was to consider replacing the bath with a similar sized one ( i know this is usually dependant on the person / company used) but how much would i expected to pay for labour cost if i was to source the materials for a new bath and shower panel?

It was 10 years ago but its likely to be 3mm, the chap I was working with likely picked it up from our local plastics merchant

Realistically changing the bath you would need spare tiles as you'll likely have to change at least 2. I would expect all in around £2000
