[QUOTE="Rizzle from the Portizzle, post: 781569"] hi dean i am with you on this tanking in your every day bathroom is a waste of money .when i fixed tiles in bathrooms shower rooms in the old days .i would run a bead of silcon down the courners and base before i started tiling then fix my tiles into the wet silcon so it was always behind the tiles and could never peel off now grout then resilcon on the top so when the client could see the silcon on the out side peeling it was not to late as the silcon behind was still holding the water back .so if you have time dean silcon one up first lay the tiles into it wet then do the other with no silcon behind the results should be intresting as the weight of water will be greatested at its loading points bottom courners only real tilers ask the right questions the rest just pay for there ignornce [/QUOTE]
