Hi all,
New house has a bathroom with a tub surround that doesn't look like it was installed well. It has 3 panels and the overlap between the panels has a gap forming (< 1/8"). I'm thinking I can just seal this for now with silicon caulk but want some advice before I go down this route. We'll probably replace the whole thing in 2 years time but for now I just want it sealed up against mold and water.
I am not at all familiar with pluming/sealants/etc. past the absolute basics - I'm not even sure how these panels are attached or what holds them together. Any advice appreciated!
