As the title states my shower has silicone in the corners off the wall that someone has done before i moved it ,

a question for the tiling pro's is it usual to grout the tiles and then silicone the corners from top of wall to bottom of the wall , is this in case movemet within the walls , or they ran out of grout lol , or this is done as usual , thanks for any help guys

I tend to silicon corners if they are plasterboard

ok silly question but why only plasterboard is it because they move more than a solid wall ?

I have got into the habit of silicon-ing most corners where there is ANY possibility of movement.

Plasterboard being the worse............then PLY..........
I usually silicon most corners now........On top of the grout, and only a small thin bead
