Supporting Shower Mixer with Silicone - is this acceptable?
Is this acceptable?


No, if you paid money for this installation, it is unacceptably poor work.

The central part and where pipes enter the wall should be covered by decorative rings. The central valve body should be firmly secured to the structure of the wall. Any visible silicone sealant should be no more than a thin bead to prevent water penetrating the surface.


  Is it safe?


No, water can leak through there and cause hidden rot or mould to develop.
