Wall meets floor - how do I do this? - Tile Advice

[KateJ]

Well I'm nearly at the end of my tileathon - more do do but....
I have lots of flooring meets wall and I don't know what you do to fill the gap and make it look presentable/waterproof.

Do I just get some dark brown sealant - squirt a bead and run my finger along it? Some of the gaps are a biut wide... I've run out of brown grout and I don't want to buy any more really.

The under the sink pic - is there something I can stick down there (or around the pipes) to stop water leaking into the flat below (you never know)...

Coud I just ask that if anyone wants to help which I will really appreciate - please don't tell me I'm wasting my time - I seem to hear that a lot.

Silicone it with brown or white silicone. Smooth it nice with your finger or a profile tool, available on eBay and probably within your budget. I wouldn't worry about around the pipes as if water is gushing around there, your in trouble regardless, dear!

I've seen a guttering part that might block water flowing out - would rather do it than not - guy downstairs very good neighbour. xx

I'll do just that thank you . Will practice on the bit behind the fridge in case I screw up...xx

You will make a considerably neater job if you have something to smooth it with, get on YouTube and get some tips

Sometimes clear silicone can work well when you have different colour tiles, it also shows less if you're not too tidy

Some of these will help

I like the idea of brown as mould is less likely to show... I know they are all mould resistant these days though..
