Some of the tiles on the wall over the tub popped off - I was thinking of getting one of those "things" that you can buy at Lowe's that you just install over the tub and the walls. I think companies like Bathfitters (yuk!) do them. I hope you know what I'm talking about. The reason I am thinking of one of those units is because replacing the tiles is difficult because I can't find the same tiles (the existing tiles were done about 20 years ago) I am doing this because I am selling the house - I've had contact paper & duct tape over the "hole" for about 3 yrs now!:o

So you are just trying to patch up this mess long enough so that in a couple of months it'll be someone elses problem ehhh?:eek:

Tiles dont just pop off the wall for no reason. Tell us whats going on there and we can tell you how to fix it the right way. You'll feel better about selling the house with the tub surround fixed correctly.:)
