Floor and walls have been tiled but who seals where the two meet?

Hello Shireen, The tiler should be able to do this work. If he's not then I would get concerned. Regards. Michael

Hi Shireen If your tiler was a competent tradesman, this should have been done as the finishing part of the services carried out, unless you requested it not to be done. The join should be sealed with a good quality mastic, Mapei, for example, once the tiles have been cleaned of grout haze and the grout fully cured.

Hi Shireen If the tiler is good at what he does he will silicone the joint without you having to ask him/her to do it. Grout should not be used for the edges as it is likely to crack over time. Sam (eps)

The tiler should seal this joint with silicone, once the grouting has been completed
