Also, ina ddition to advise good quality silicone caulk, let em add this:
Before caulking the joints between tub and wall, fill the tub with water. You need to have the tub settle to its lowest point so that the gap between it and the wall is at its greatest width. That way when the gap is filled and the caulk has set, when you let out the water the caulk is compressed.
If you caulk when the tub is empty, each time you fill the tub and add your weight to it, the joint is stretched apart which will eventually cause the joint to fail.
I prefer the GE Silicone, personally,
