We still use bath seals on site, :mad2:

As Gall says they cause more problems than they solve.

I hate them but if the site wants them in then we have to use them.

After a couple of years the rubber seal starts to discolour from the plastic that its attached to.

New builds .. The floors/joists settle etc and then the bath sinks and crap gets in... same with domestics, all the crap gets under the poo rubber seal and then stinks and causes mould... should be banned imo ..

Ditto to that

I've took more failed bath seals out than I've fitted. Very bad design, they should be banned imo

no offence taken. your the xpert. i know very little about tiling. iv seen a lot of pro tilers here use those ones. .

so i take it that most of you use a saw and miter box to cut the trim. im dubious about those handheld trim cutters . they look like they would squash the trim and give a poor miter joint.
