How best to seal up a the joint between the shower kerb and floor?

[nez]

Water is seeping out from my bathroom shower area. Specifically between the kerb and the floor.

I only want to get something to apply to the joint. Not intending to redo the kerb.

What is best to use to seal up the joint? Silicon?

Something that can be purchased from local hardware store.

Thanks

This is for illustration purpose only (Not my bathroom)

Cement or silicone.

Cement comes in a tube like silicon?

Water proofing solution

how's that the water could seep thru' from that kerb?
perhaps can try putty or apply those clear silicone [fish tank use]

If it is a simple case of water seeping from the shower area through a hole in the cement grout then just seal up the hole.

If want lasting seal can try epoxy grout.

not those cheapo silicone sealant, must be weather resistant type that they used to seal windows facing the outside... usually in black or grey colour

Not tube but pack, saw ntuc selling small pack for ppl to seal wall holes or cracks.

Use glue gun, better if you have butane torch

Can't visually see where the gaps are as it is tiny. Likely not just 1 or 2 spots but a short stretch.

You tried epoxy grout before? Comes in a tube?

not suitable and too messy and difficult.
