How to repair seal and grout around bath and shower?

[amichaelmedia]

 

Hey all

Doing a clean up of my bathroom and saw the seal around the bath is looking a little worn. And what I think is a seal between the showers and tiles are worn/removed

Products/fixes to use?

Thanks

Hi @amichaelmedia,

The first gap could be filled with a wet area silicone sealant to neaten it up, and you'll need a caulking gun to dispense the silicone. The edge of the bath also appears to be silicon sealant. To reseal that edge, you'll need to first remove the old sealant with a sealant remover. Here's a helpful step-by-step guide: How to apply silicone sealant.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hey again. Because the seal is ongoing around the bath, do I remove only a section of the seal or redo the whole bath?

 looking at the seal around my bathroom sink. Will this need a similar treatment?

Hi @amichaelmedia,

It is best to replace the whole seal instead of repairing sections of it. It appears that you could apply a thin bead of silicone around the plug to cover the rusted portion. However, this is likely a job for touch-up paint instead of silicone.
