I have a 6' tub/shower. I noticed that the caulking around it was getting loose. I thought I could just easily pull up the old caulking (that was the naive part) and put down new caulk. Well, I need more tools and more time. So...........I had loosened the bottom of the silicone caulk and tried to pull out some small areas (1/2" here and there). But now I realize this is a bigger job than I'm prepared for. But I still want to use the shower. Any ideas what I could use as a temporary fix, so no water goes behind the tub/wall marble? I feel really stupid. I don't think tape of any kind would hold.........but maybe it would just for the length of a quick shower?
And now I've read that you should fill your tub before putting on new caulk. I guess that means you have to have your lower legs in water the whole time you're working on it??
Hmmm.......Maybe I'll call a professional "caulker"?
Any stop gap measures you can think of so I can continue to shower without fixing this just yet?
