Our TT has the 36" small tub type shower base with the standard shower curtain. Every time the shower is used there is a flood in the floor. Water runs down the lower wall and behind the curtain and over the tub edge onto the floor.
I tried a water deflector "thingy" but nothing will stick to the wall. The wall has a very slick surface, tried all kinds of stuff but nothing sticks. The normal installation calls for using a caulking, but the wall is not square and a very large gap precludes from using caulk.....
I have tried duct tape, various tube/wall sealant tapes and no luck.
It needs to be very sticky and waterproof... Any Ideas ???????

Got pictures?
Not sure from your post whether you are saying that the tray overflows, indicating a drain problem, or if you have a gap where the wall meets the tub/tray.If a large gap, fill with expanding foam, trim and then caulk. Your signature indicates that you have a 2011 unit; is there not warranty coverage?

Not an overflow problem. Water runs down wall behind curtain and into floor. Here is link to deflectors I am trying to use....

Pleated/folding accordian shower door! We've installed one of these in 5 out of 7 Jayco's we've had...even when our kids showered there were no leaks or puddles outside the tub!
Around $70.00 or usually on sale for $50.00 or so!

What about a 3M Command Strip clip (like an attached clothes pin) attached to the wall to pull curtain tight to wall at back of shower?
You may ahave to lightly sand a small spot to ensure that it sticks. I know you don't want to mark the wall but better this than replacing the floor.

Our Komfort 21T has the pleated accordian door.
I did have to use caulking along the lower track where it meets the tub. It is now waterproof.

Probably could build yourself a dam out of silicone caulk (just a bead closing off the waters path to the floor). Good luck / Skip

I used double sided tape and stuck the curtain to the shower surround on my old TT

I was having troubles like that and thought about the same stuff in the link, but I just went down to wal mart and got a shower curtain rod the size I needed and when we take a shower I put the rod about thigh high on the wall and secure it to the other wall with the inner spring hold it and the curtain in place. no water gets past the shower curtain now. plus I use the rod to hang wet clothes in the shower to dry, so it pulls double duty
