Should you use grout or caulk around a bathtub?

You should use caulk. Be sure to remove any other product and start with clean surfaces.

I agree with Janice, caulk is the better solution nowadays. Its flexible and provides a completely water tight seal. Its also easy to apply!

Caulk. It's flexible and gives a better seal.

Caulk. The wall and tub move differently. Caulk flexes with the movement.

Caulk, it allows movement without breaking the seal, plus it stands up to cleaning.

Caulk where two different types of material meet. Grout between similar materials. Wall to tub is almost always caulk.

Caulk

grout is for tile caulk is for around tubs and showers, etc.

Silicone caulk is what is recommended for the bathtub.

I always caulk at the tub edge as grout can be more porous unless you are resealing regularly.

Caulk is what you should use where the tile and tub meet. You can remove the old stuff and squeeze on a nice new bead very easily.

Hi Rivka, hope this helps you. You will want to caulk all the way around the tub.

You should seal the entrance, just like you would any other gap near your bathtub, to avoid any potential water damage or the growth of mold and mildew. The area where the floor tile and tub meet should be caulked as you are fusing two distinct materials together.
