I have a one piece fiberglass shower in my master bath. The fiberglass stall is only 6 feet tall and the remaining two feet to the ceiling is painted drywall. Not surprising to me, the drywall is crumbling where it meets the fiberglass due to the moisture/steam/splashes from the shower. A small bead of caulk seems to be ineffective. What should I do? Is there a way the drywall and fiberglass can peacefully co-exist? (More caulk?) Should I tile the area from the fiberglass to the ceiling? (I have a tile floor that I hope I could match). If I do this... how to do it? Cut away all the drywall, install Durock directly to studs, tile on top of that? Would this be a hard job? Any advice?
