This was a plan gone wrong. I built it for storage. Gave it a miss, as I could see problems
Apologies everyone. Really busy few days. I’ve added some photos below. I appreciate all the responses. The problem I’ve got is the shower above it. It mainly gets used as a shower so the water pools in the corner then slowly leaks through the shower door.
From my understanding it’s a fibreglass reinforced acrylic bath. I’ll think sticking a post directly under it as the first option to try. I made a wooden frame for it and one of the supports is slightly off from it so it could be that is also putting pressure on the wrong side.

Dont expect a 'plastic' bath to be completely uniform. I've seen the process and the final gel coat can vary to such an extent, slight distortion of the finished product is not exactly uniformally flat on its upper surfaces.
How much was it?
What alternative would I have to that?

I may have this wrong but does the first panel hinge from the wall.
The shower screen? Yeah it’s screwed into the wall.
