[QUOTE="Rich, post: 325306"] I did a repair on a Huge house a few months ago because the tiler had not sealed properly around the shower tray, water had got behind the tiles and ruined the plasterboard. I got a call from the lady the other day asking if I could go round and take a look at the other shower room, the silicone had gone black and could I replace it. As I was only working round the corner I popped round yesterday. I wish I had taken my camera... The tiles were hanging off the wall, huge cracks along the grouting, the internal corners had been grouted then siliconed, the silicone was totaly black, the shower screen hadnt been siliconed and there were several holes in the grout. The worst part was that she told me that he is a 'really good tiler' :yikes: :mad2: I told her that I could only do a patch up job there and then but she was going to have problems down the line. Let this be a lesson to all, grout in internal corners will crack and come loose taking any silicone ontop of it with it. [/QUOTE]
