Hi. Today we have had a mishap in our 16 year old Hymer B574. The shower tray has cracked a round the drain hole and is leaking into the garage below. A part from the obvious and getting a complete new shower tray any ideas on a temporary fix as we are off to Spa next weekend for the racing. Will not have enough time to replace the tray complete in that time.:Doh:

plastic weld the crack then cover the repair with waterproof tape. when you get back from your trip, get it sprayed with bed liner

Hi Dergrowler

Had this with our caravan some years ago, our plug fitting was sat in a recess in the tray and had cracked around the metal plug fitting but left the curved edges of the recess intact, I removed the metal plug hole made a white fibreglass washer with chamfered outside edge on the underside to fill in the recess area I then stuck this back in with white Sikaflex type adhesive and refitted the metal plug hole.

Still OK when we sold it about 10 years later.

Hope you understand this, If you want a picture just shout as it would make the explanation much easier.

Hi Dergrowler

I have done a little sketch that might help, I hope!. Of course if your is cracked in a different place it might not work.
