That peeling wallpaper is usually a fairly easy repair with a little clear sealant.

I would be more concerned with the flexing for the shower basin. I don't think it should flex much if at all.

As soon as I get it back from storage or check on it, I will snap one.
That would be great Thanks!

Edge of Shower Basin Peeling

Post by jcarlilesiu » January 21st, 2015, 1:25 am

I was checking out our camper yesterday (its in winter storage) and noticed that the corner shower basin has a small issue.

Where the fiberglass/plastic shower base hangs over the little base wall, it looks like flexing is causing the wallpaper material to separate from the wall. There are some batten strips between sections (where the shower base angles), and its actually on that batten that the rubbing is doing some damage.

I guess my main concern is, I have always been a little concerned that there is excess flex in the show base. I am a pretty big guy, and when I get into the shower, I can feel some give. It wasn't really concerning until I saw that the flexing is doing some damage to small curb wall its mounted to.

Does anybody else's shower floor flex like that, or should I be concerned that it isn't well supported?
