    Advice on replacing silicone around bath and large gaps

    Thanks for the advice. All done now. I can't say that was enjoyable. Not sure if I had a bad gun or just crap skills but the silicone was coming out like little maggots. I cut the top again to make the hole larger (at an angle of 45 degrees) which did help somewhat but it felt like it needed a...

    New custom bath panel and problem floor vinyl gap

    Thanks for the reply. Perhaps the slimmer size of this could work better than the 17mm uPVC quadrant I did try. The 17mm quadrant looked really odd and bulky and took away from the idea of the clean step from the panel back to the plinth

    New custom bath panel and problem floor vinyl gap

    I decided to have a go at replacing a cracked bath panel on a wall to wall bath with a home made panel. I created the panel from tongue and groove moisture resistant MDF using vertical pieces with 6mm plywood backing. This sandwich tucks into the hook of the bath at the top. I created a 120mm...
