I have recently installed a Lasco 2 piece combo shower/tub assembly, as per the manufacture’s instructions. Screwed the mounting flanges on to bare wood, then overlapped the drywall to 3/8" to the unit walls (used vinyl j-channel for edge of drywall) Caulked with silicon between drywall and fiberglass.
The finished product looks OK, but I was thinking to add some other trim feature around the tub/drywall intersection. I understand that these tubs expand and contract more, Lasco recommends a minimum of 1/4" caulk joint for that.
Has anyone added something like ceramic bullnose trim, or exterior PVC trim, mounted on the drywall, caulked to the tub?
I would think as is, after a few years of cleaning, the paint on the drywall would start to get ragged.
Thanks John
