    If sealant has split then bath is moving, and from my experiance having fitted many baths few are ever fitted correctly. most only have front legs screwed down, no wall brackets or a frame to support it. if the fitters knew it was to be used for showering also then it reqs extra strenghthening...

    How do I fit my new fibreglass bath?

    Try reading the manufacturers instructions you will have got with the bath, it will tell you all you need to know. For extra support you will need to use the 2 brackets to screw it against the wall, and silicone to seal it. And i usually support all 4 corners with timber to stop it flexing.
