    Silicon over Flexible Grout in Internal Corners?

    Hi all, As per the title, my tiler has grouted the internal corners of our new shower enclosure with a flexible tile grout. I found this out when visiting him at the end of the job, when he said it just needs siliconing on top, asking if I was happy to do it myself. At the time I thought...

    Are you supposed to mitre the internal corners of metro or should you scribe?

    The champers would obviously create to big a grout joint. I'm thinking a mitre. Scribing might be a bit wobbly looking?

    Would you have tanked the internal corners on this?

    Was just watching this video and even though this guys tiling is spot on IMO, i cant help think he didn't do his wet room exactly as i would. I see when he taped his corners, he didnt use the wet tanking membrane that would get rolled on. I see he didnt tape all around the kaskade tray as...

    Tiling Wooden Internal Stairs

    Hi all, I was wondering if anybody has done this or if they have any advice about doing so? I'm not even sure that it's a good idea or not. But, presumably if plenty of screws were put in and there was little movement then it should be achievable.

    Shower Alcove Internal Corners - Grouted By Mistake, Can I Silicon On Top??

    Dang diddly! In my mad rush to get as much of the shower alcove grouted before the epoxy grout became unusable, I absent mindedly filled the vertical corner joints with grout. I tanked the bejeebus outta the whole alcove, and the bathroom is on the ground floor sitting on sand and cement...
