    Hi Mark..

    This joint is an expansion point and should be filled with a suitable sanitary silicone... these can be bought in colours to match grout colours if required.

    Cheers Dave

    I have BAL manilla microban grout and silicone sealant, so will just use the grout between the tiles and silicone between corner joints and floor and walls then.

    Cheers
