Good Evening Everyone,
About 2.5 years ago I had the ensuite turned into a semi wet room i.e. two and a half walls where the shower could potentially wet. There hasn't been any problem with water leaking through anywhere but some of the tiles have started to flake (best word I can think of) and...

I have had some tiling done in my kitchen and I would like some advice.

The guy doing the work has suggested chiselling into the plaster and using a finely cut...
Gents,
Any idea what the best Silicon would be to use in a steam room?
I need to Silicon the glass U channel areas as they have finally started to go mouldy after 6 years of use. I wish I could remember what the last brand was as it's held up so well but I just can't remember.
Thanks!
