I have a sectional shower. The problem is that the rubber? strip that
divides each section has become dry rotted and corroded. Is is possible
that a plumber or one who remodels bathrooms can replace these strips. I
would try it myself but I don't know if the sections would collapse if
the strips are removed. The shower is dry walled in. Also, I couldn't
find the strips at any store. It would be ashame if the whole shower had
to be ripped out. I would appreciate it if someone would enlighten me.

Those showers are junk from the get go.

Mark is right on this one. Those sectional showers are junk. If you
don't have the money to replace the entire shower, grab a couple of
tubes of silicone caulk and do the best you can do until you can have
the entire stall replaced.
