Shower tray / tile gap - Tile Advice

[Realtek]

Hi,

I have just tiled my bathroom wall and done the last row around the shower tray. I wasn’t sure how much gap to leave but it ranges between 4mm and 5mm.

I have tanked the walls and used the Mapei tape also around the shower tray.

Are those size gaps ok? Looks like sealant would fill them ok but just wanted to double check before the adhesive goes off.

Thanks

Yes silicone wants a few mm to get into anyway a nice 8-10mm bead around the tray will be fine

Thanks for that. I read you went a decent gap to make sure silicone can actually get in there. I re-did the biggest gap as I wasn’t happy with it but all seems to be good now. Thanks!
