Should a Freestanding Bath Move?

Are freestanding baths fixed to the floor? Freestanding tubs are not fixed to the floor unless you want them to be. Most of the time, especially with solid stone bathtubs, gravity takes care of the "moving" issue.

How do I stop my freestanding tub from moving?

Carefully set the tub in position and adjust the tub feet as necessary until level. Once level, apply a generous bead of silicone on the bottom of the feet. This will prevent the tub from shifting after installation.

How do you secure a free standing tub?

Once your floor is cleaned and dry, run a large bead of caulk around the bottom base of your bathtub and stand it upright. Run another large bead of caulk around the bathtub to fully secure it to the floor. Once the caulk is dry, you can wipe away any excess with a damp cloth.
