Small gap/hole above bath silicone

veganrun · 28-01-2019 11:15PM #1

I was cleaning around the bath and have noticed what looks like a small gap/hole in the wall just above the silicone sealant. It’s very small, maybe 2cm long and 1-2mm high.

Is there some sort of sealant or putty that I can get to fill it in? The wall is wood. I am renting the apartment but it seems like a tiny job I could do myself.

I don’t have any tools for doing it. Was hoping I could get some sort of putty/sealant pencil or pen or something to kind of just fill it in but I don’t know if such a thing exists?

I'm afraid it sounds like you're going to have to Rip the wall out and build a new one.

Sorry couldn't resist, I think this might win the prize for smallest DIY job I've seen in a while ðŸ˜.

Lots of ways to sort it very easily. Best bet is go to local hardware and ask them as you'll have many options depending on finish your looking for.

Or you could just blob some more silicone on

Was thinking how I’d love this to be the biggest issue in my house!!
