Definitions
- the present invention relates to a seal for sealing the junction between two contiguous surfaces disposed at an angle to each other, such as but not limited to the junction between a tiled wall and a shower tray.
- a semi rigid (typically uPVC) quadrant type sealtrim has an inner upstanding perforated flange and a curved outer limb with a flexible bottom outer lip. This sealtrim is located over the junction. The flange is positioned against the adjacent wall and the bottom outer lip on the receptacle. The sealtrim is perforated to accommodate the trowelling of tile adhesive or sealant. Thus, the sealtrim is held in position through the flanges being sandwiched between the tiles and the wall, and sometimes, installers lay sealant inside the 'quadrant' cavity.
- a semi-rigid (typically uPVC) dual purpose quadrant type seal trim has an upstanding flange with a flexible top lip, and a flexible bottom quadrant outer lip. This sealtrim is located over the junction.
- the sealtrim can be fixed (A) before or (B) after tiling. (A) When installed before tiling the inner face of the sealtrim flange is placed against the wall and a peel off adhesive fixing tape is laid along the outer side of the flange. Thus, when the tiles are pressed over this fixing tape, the sealtrim is held in position through the flange being sandwiched between the wall adhesive and the tiles.
- METHOD C A semi-rigid (typically uPVC) double lipped scotia type profile, or double lipped angular profile surface is located over the junction.
- the double lipped scotia type profile is fixed through a 'clip on' action over a frame (fixed onto wall or receptacle) hidden inside the cavity.
- the double lipped profile is fixed through the use of double sided adhesive tape fixed on the inner side of both flanges.
- METHOD D A quadrant type tile is laid over the junction, either onto the wall directly, or surface mounted over the existing wall surface, and grout or a sealant is used between the receptacle and the underside of the tile.
- METHOD E Recent solutions have attempted to solve this problem through the introduction of a 'rim' or an 'upstanding flange' integrated into or fixed onto the receptacle which would be overlapped by the wall covering.
- METHOD F The cavity between the receptacle and the adjacent wall is filled with a sealant.
- METHOD G Yet further sealing methods exist by way of providing multi component strip sealing systems, incorporating 90 degree corner mouldings that are designed to be overlapped behind and/or butt jointed between or overlap the front of sealing strip(s) in corner locations.
- the engagement location profile of these corner mouldings substantially follow the adjacent sealing strip profile.
- These sealing assemblies rely on a sealant, glue or a non-setting non dilutable compounds to maintain a seal between the corner moulding and the adjoining components. Seal components may be retained in position on, or over the main sealing strip with the aid of clipping limbs or flanges extending therefrom, and butt jointed to complementary engagement points thereon.
- a sealing assembly comprises two preformed, liquid-impervious strips having respective interlocatable members, whereby one strip is sealed to wall and the other strip is sealed to the receptacle thus allowing a vertically sliding or telescopic movement between them.
- 90 degree corner mouldings with one or more projecting tongues are engaged into the ends of recesses in the strips. These 90 degree corner mouldings are two part components, each arm of the upper part is sealed onto each adjacent wall, while each arm of the lower part is sealed onto each adjacent receptacle surface. Apart from the projecting tongues the corner mouldings are butt jointed to the sealing strips.
- sealants and grouts are not elastic enough to maintain a water tight bond in the event of the relative movement between horizontal surfaces and walls. Movement can occur due to timber stud partition shrinkage, timber floor joist shrinkage, structural settlement, movement under weight especially in acrylic baths and shower trays, thermal movement and vibrations.
- the sealtrims are dependent on that part of the outer sleeve that is flexible, remaining in contact with the horizontal surface, (a) The pressure exerted by the sealtrim at this contact point reduces with age and depreciation allowing water penetration, (b) The sealtrim at this contact point is not robust enough to prevent the lodging of debris that may occur through wiping or accident, which also results in water penetration.
- sealtrims are critically dependent on the outer 'soft lips' remaining in contact with the adjacent surfaces.
- the problems are (a) lips are fresh and elastic when installed, elasticity reduced with age and lip pressure is lost, (b) lips shrink and harden with age as plastersizor migration occurs (c) debris lodges between lip and adjacent surface through wiping, (d) lip pressure upon tiled surfaces is lost when it crosses a recessed grouted joint, (e) water running down a tiled surface causes the lip to curl outward, (f) lip pressure is lost as differential movement occurs inside a shower area.
- the problem with the sealing assembly described as method G is that sealant is applied between the interfaces of the corner moulding to two sealing strips. If movement such as shrinkage occurs in either or both adjoining walls in the comer, stresses are created on the comer moulding that cause it to tear away from one or other of the sealing strips leading to leaks between the comer moulding and/or sealing strips and/or wall.
- the problem with the sealing assembly described as method H is that the upper section of the corner moulding is sealed onto two different wall surfaces, if movement such as shrinkage occurs in either or both adjoining walls in the comer, stresses are created on the comer moulding that cause it to tear away from one or other of the wall surfaces and the attached sealing strips, leading to leaks between the corner moulding and/or sealing strips and/or wall and/or the receptacle.
- the comer moulding is (excluding the tongues) butt jointed to the sealing strips, whereby thermal movement alone may cause leakage.

- Figure 1 details a wall trim 10 which has a first upper limb 11 for contacting a generally vertical surface A, and a lower outer limb 12 for contacting a generally horizontal surface B.
- the outer face of the first limb 11 has a series of ridges 13 for gripping the wall surface, and/or holding sealant.
- the outer face 15 of limb 18 forms sealant reservoir 14 between the upper outer boundary of the first limb 11 , and a vertical surface, to accommodate a sealing material.
- the outer face 15 of limb 18 is ribbed, to ensure strong adhesion of the sealant material. (See Figures 11-18).
- the inside face 83 of limb 18 is adapted to throw moisture over the upper boundary 17 and onto the outer face 29 of the side trim 30, when engaged upon the wall trim 10.
- the lowermost boundary 84 of limb 18 is adapted to engage the upper outer face 29 of the side trim 30, when engaged upon the wall trim 10.
- limb 85 Extending outwardly and downward over the inside face 24 of the first limb 11 , and connecting the main structure of limb 11 to limb 18, is limb 85 which forms a retaining pen 16 with limb 11, into which the uppermost boundary 17 of the side trim 30 is engaged.
- the inside face 24 of the first limb has a small rebate 19, indicating the premium location for drilling holes 22, for mechanical fixing onto the vertical surface A.
- Extending downward from the lowermost boundary of the first limb 11 is the spacing flange 20, which sets a gap and/or provides support for the wall trim during installation.
- the spacing flange is removable (by being snapped off), through the provision of weakening rebate 21.
- the wall trim lower outer second limb 12 has an inside face 23 that is splayed outward to aid the run off of any moisture.
- the outermost boundary of the second limb 12 is divided into two limbs, the upper limb 25 and a lower angular limb 26, both co-operating to engage and retain between them, the complementary outermost point 27 of the engagement arm 36, of the side trim 30.
- the lower angular limb 26 is adapted through the length of the downward region 82, to act as a spacing guide to achieve the right compression for the sealing tape 70. (See Figures 1 1- 21).
- the lower outside face 81 of limb 12 is adapted to ensure the strong compressed adhesion of a sealing material 70, against a horizontal surface.
- the side trim 30 has an upper boundary point 17 adapted to releasably engage the retaining pen 16 of the wall trim.
- the side trim engagement arm 36 extending laterally across the lower inside face 28 of the side trim, has an outer ball type boundary 27, adapted to releasably engage between the outermost limbs 25 and 26 of the wall trim limb 12.
- the engagement arm 36 may be adapted through a weakening rebate 39, to be snapped off the side trim 30.
- the outer face of the side trim 29 carries moisture from the uppermost boundary point 17, to the lower most boundary point 31.
- the wall trim lower limb 12 inside face 23 carries moisture from the uppermost point 35 where it joins the first limbl 1, to the channel 34 formed in the side trim engagement arm 36, by the outermost ball type boundary 27. Moisture contained in this channel 34 drains out through the outlet gap formed when the side trim engagement arm 36 meets the side trim mitre piece 40 or 50 engagement arms 41 or 51. (See Figures 11-14).
- Figure 2 shows a wall 10 trim with an alternate uppermost boundary detail 33 being a co- extruded flexible nitrile modified vinyl, and side trim 30 with an alternate lowermost boundary detail 32 being a co-extruded flexible nitrile modified vinyl.
- FIG 3 and 4 detail a wall trim 10, a side trim 30 and a left hand side end cap 80 assembly.
- the wall trim and side trim in Figure 4 have additional co-extrusions
- Figure 5 details a recessed side trim mitre piece 40.
- the recessed side trim mitre piece is wholly recessed behind the side trim 30 when installed.

- the outermost surface 42 and 43 of the recessed side trim mitre piece 40 do not extend beyond the inside face 28 of the side trim 30.
- the length of the side trim engagement arm 36 extends from the inner area between the wall trim limbs 25 and 26, to the outer face 43 of the recessed mitre.
- the recessed side trim mitre piece 40 may be overlapped by the side trim 30, after the overlapping side trim engagement arms 36 are removed.
- Each arm of the recessed side trim mitre piece 40 is able to slide parallel and independently, inside their respective assembled wall trim and side trim cavity 86. (See Figures 13-14).
- Figure 6 details a semi-recessed side trim mitre piece 50.
- the semi-recessed side trim mitre piece 50 is installed, and can move when installed, in a similar manner to the recessed side trim mitre piece 40.
- the overlapping side trims 30 however, are cut at right angles and installed over the stepped recessed region 53 and 54 of the semi-recessed side trim mitre piece 50 after the overlapping engagement arms 36 are removed. (See Figures 15-16)
- Figure 7 details left hand 80 and right hand 90 end caps.
- the end caps are used to close the wall trim/side trim cavity at the end of the seal.
- Flanges 56 and 58 sit against the inside faces of the wall trim first limb 11 and second limb 12 respectively, while the side trim inside face 28 sits over flange 57.
- the end cap profile 59 matches the assembled seal profile.
- Figure 8 details a recessed side trim coupler 60, that is a straight joining piece installed onto the wall trim behind two butt jointed side trims 30 or a side trim and side trim mitre piece.
- the engagement arm 61 and sectional profile is similar to the recessed side trim mitre piece 40, and it is installed onto the wall trim in a similar way, with the overlapping side trim engagement arms being removed.
- the inside face of the side trim 28, lies sealingly against the outside face 62 of the side trim coupler 60. In a further embodiment (not shown) it may be surface mounted.
- Figure 9 details a surface mounted side trim mitre piece 63. This upper regions 64 and 65 are sandwiched between the side trim outside face 29, and wall trim limbs 85 and the lowermost boundary 84 of limb 18, when assembled and butt jointed in a comer.
- the lower regions 66 and 67 remain exposed over the side trim 30 after installation.
- the purpose of this component 63 is as an optional additional measure to use with the side trim mitre pieces. (See Figure 18). These lower regions 66 & 67 may extend downward to the lowermost region 31 of the side trim (not shown).
- the upper regions 64 and 65 are maintained in position through a ridge 87, that is complemented to engage the cavity 88 between the outer face 29 of the side trim 30 and the upper undersides of retaining pen 16.
- side trim comer mitre pieces are possible through any combination of embodiments described in the side trim mitre pieces 40, 50 and 63.
- Figure 10 details a top trim mitre piece 68. This component is installed by being snapped over limbs 18 of two butt jointed wall trims 10 meeting in the comer.
- the inside face 81 of the top trim mitre piece is substantially concave in section to sealingly engage limb 18 of the wall trim 10, between hook like upper and lower boundaries 78 and 79 respectively.
- this component 68 is as an optional additional measure to use with the side trim mitre pieces.
- a linear length of top trim (not shown) will have a wider cross section than the top trim mitre piece 68, to overlap same.
- An upper boundary tile support element (not shown), may be incorporated onto the top trim and top trim mitre piece mitre piece 68. (See Figure 17)
- Figure 11 details a wall trim 10 and side trim 30, both with co-extrusions 33 and 32 attached respectively.
- a sealant tape 70 is compressed between the outside face of the wall trim second limb 81 and a horizontal surface B.
- the compression rate for the sealing tape 70 is fixed by the length of the downward section 82 of the wall trim limb 26.
- a mastic type sealant 71 is contained between the wall trim sealant reservoir 14 and a vertical surface A.
- a typical installation method for fixing the wall trim onto surface A is by screwing it on, through pre-punched elongated holes 22.

- the engagement arm 36 of the side trim 30 has been removed to allow the overlap installation. It is the remainder of this side trim engagement arm 36 that retains the side trim 30 in position on the wall trim 10, while the region of the side trim 30 that overlaps a region of the semi-recessed side trim mitre piece 50, contains the semi-recessed mitre piece 50 on the wall trim, allowing it to slide thereon, parallel with the wall trim 10 and side trim 30, as may be dictated by movement in the complementary arm.
- Figure 17 details a top trim mitre piece 68 installed over limb 18 of the wall trim.
- the top trim mitre piece 68 sealingly connects two butt jointed wall trim limbs 18 together in a comer. It moves in a similar manner to the side trim mitre pieces.
- Figure 18 details a surface mounted side trim mitre piece 63, installed between the outer surface 29 of the side trim 30, and the inside upper surface of the side trim retaining pen 16 of the wall trim 10. It moves in a similar manner to the side trim mitre pieces.
- FIGs 19, 20 and 21 detail respectively the three stages involved in installing the taped sealing compound between the wall trim 10 and the horizontal surface B.
- Figure 19 shows the notched 72 wall trims 10 butt jointed in a typical corner detail.
- Figure 20 details the passage of sealing tape between the wall trims 10 and the horizontal surface B, the joining together 75 of two sealing tapes below the notches 72 (maintaining full and complete contact with the horizontal surface), and the passage and termination 73 of the sealing tapes (partially bonded) through the notches 73.
- Figure 21 details the two sealing tapes bonded together and sealingly laid 74 over a region of the wall trim mitred joint.

- Typical locations for this seal in either recessed, surface mounted or replacement installations are in shower enclosures, wherein the seal is installed longitudinally onto wall over the joint created by the tray or bath.
- a typical installation method will now be described, taking by way of a subject, a replacement installation in an existing shower, being a shower tray with a faulty seal fixed to three walls.
- This installation will incorporate the typical use of wall trims, side trims, recessed side trim mitre pieces, end caps, sealant tape, sealant mastic and stainless steel screws.
- a first length will have two mitre cuts and be installed between two comers, while a second and third lengths will have one mitre cut each, to complement each end of the first seal length.
- the siliconized paper is removed and the seal offered against the wall over the proposed joint to be sealed, lowered, and pressed firmly down onto the tray, maintaining it tight against the wall in the process, and compressing the sealant tape between the tray and underside of the seal. Fix the seal to the wall permanently with stainless steel screws.
