Tanking Junction

[White Room]

Why not run a vertical bead of Silicon behind the tiles as you fix where the shower frame will be.

if can throw something in the mix here 😉
you have tanked the shower, it's corners and it junction with the tray perfectly. For whatever reason water gets behind tiles, the substrate is protected.
where does the water go?

Julian I've asked this question previously & it was stated to let any water flow back out into the tray then there must be weep holes in the bead of Silicon at the bottom.

If you have water running into the joints and down the back of the tiles your screwed anyway.

If you saw the thread in the arms that @deanotile did, you wouldn't be too worried about water getting behind the tiles from just the grout area.

a hole would be logical if there was no threat of water being sucked in.
missed any threads where this was talked about, will have to find them and have a read.
