I'm with Pete f, walls first, mask base of wall, grout floor, umask and silicone.![]()



I would definitely grout the walls first ( well my lad would anyway) then I would use masking tape for the wall joint at floor level and get him to grout the floor in whatever colour blended with the floor tile. The next part is debateable -would I seal the wall/floor joint? Yes but only if it was dry and dust free. And i would certainly make the customer aware that if i had to return there would be an additional cost. As for the rest of the bathroom equipment, my preference is to leave all silicone sealing to the plumber ie. baths, basins, showers.If you don't you usually find brick dust all over the new silicone.
