    Finally a smart and correct way to reseal bath. While taking a bath and looking at my big crack in the seal I got to the same conclusion, that I have to fill the tub up with water and then seal it. This is the first video of many I've seen that shows this method. Thank you for sharing!

    As a plumber who has resealed numerous baths and showers the majority of time is spent cleaning the surfaces, the more silicon you remove the better the finish, just take your time.

    Came back to say thanks again for this video. I removed all the old caulk in my bathroom yesterday and replaced it with fresh white silicone. It was hard going but your tips really helped me to feel confident about being able to do it all by myself!

    My very first attempt at re-sealing a bath and a shower. I watched your video Philippa and followed your instructions and video to the letter. I'm thrilled to bits with the result and I'm guessing it would have cost a lot of money to have had a plumber in to do the exact same job. Thank you for being so precise and clear. Job well done.

    Excellent video, which enabled me to do what seems to be a very professional looking job. The tip about using a water spray (about 5 minutes in) is great. Thanks, Philippa!

    Love the tip to fill the bath before sealing. I would never have thought of that :)

    I like how you dropped that thin bead and followed up with soapy water on exposed edges. Made taping unnecessary and kept your bead thin. First time I've ever seen that, so thank you. Bravo on your technique, thoroughness, and brevity. I agree with others that cutting the tip on a flat surface is a little more precise and safe.

    I feel set up to have a go now and the tips in this clip are really helpful. Especially the one about filling the bath once you've battened the bath to keep iT stable. Thanks a ton...here I go!
