I would like some advise from anyone. I have created a Japanese Bath. The bath tub is an Oceania Geisha Soaker, It comes in two pieces.
The bathtub came with a sealant that must be placed between the two pieces so that they will bond. Well unfortunately despite the seal, the tub leaks at the seam where the two pieces join.
The manufacturer blames the plumber for improper installation, because if it leaks the installation was improper.
The plumber takes no responsiblity for any wrong doing and blames the manufacturer.
Well since this tub is already tiled in I ask if there is a way to seal the tub from the inside so it wont leak. Silicone caulk has been placed in the seam from the inside of the tub to stop leakage, however, it still leaks.
The manufacturer says silicone would only be a patch.
Any advice on sometype of adhesive to place in the seam and spray acrylic to harden over any adhesive so it wont leak.
I would like to find a solution for this issue, in hopes to not get any lawyers involved. Any solutions would be welcome.
Thank you everyone,
Best wishes,
Bodhi
p.s. I believe the tub is an acrylic tub that holds 90 gallons, so any patch has to withstand the water pressure from inside the tub.
