Caulking will be the best to use, grout will crack out and fail fairly quickly.

All the old materials must be removed, then the surface need to be totally cleaned , if there is moisture behind or under the floor it need to be dry . then caulk it.

If the surface is not dry and clean the caulk will fail also.

Subject: [sccpartners] Caulking shower corners

 

Hi, partners,

 

The attached are photos of a shower floor joint where it joins the wall.  It appears that the caulk is coming loose in the corners. What is the best way to remedy this problem, and to keep water from penetrating in these areas?  Grout, caulk, both? Any methods or products that do better than others?

 

Thank you,

 

Stuart Young
