Hi all, I’m struggling with a leak from our bath waste. The original fitter sealed everything up with about a tonne of silicone, which is now failing.
The underlying problem seems to be the fact the bottom of the bath isn’t completely flat, which means the rubber gasket seal does’t sit flush with the underside of the bath. I’ve tried making a thicker seal out of a sheet of 6mm silicone rubber but it’s still not sealing.
I think the waste hardware is a bit cheap and nasty, so I was going to try this decent looking one from screw fix click here
Thought I’d ask for hints & tips before I strip everything out and replace.
I was considering plumbers mait but I gather that’s frowned upon for baths because of the movement…
