I just put in an alcove bathtub and I am ready to shim and screw the flange into the studs. However, the front of the tub has about an inch gap between flange and studs. I can put about two shims between the gap. Should I use something else, or is double-shimming okay?
Also, what size screws should I use? I have both a box of #6 and #8 SPAX 1.25 inch construction screws (zinc coated). Will either of these work?
Thanks in advance for the help!
