Hi,
The walls in my kitchen are far from square and after fitting my worktop there are gaps between the worktop and the wall of differing sizes at various intervals along the 3m length. I didn't have the patience or skill to plane the worktop to fit the wall.
I don't know the correct way to seal a worktop to the wall but I was going to seal it to the wall with transparent silicone before tiling. After tiling should I then run a bead of silicone along the tile/worktop edge or will the grout be sufficient considering I have already sealed the worktop behind the tiles.
But now that I have large gaps how do I seal the worktop to the wall or should I forget this and just tile, bringing the tiles out from the wall with large lumps of grout to cover the gaps.
Or should I fill the gaps with something and then seal with silicone and then tile. If so what can I fill the gaps with so the silicone does not just disappear down the back?
BTW, the exposed chipboard on the worktop edges have been sealed with PVA.
I don't want a rotten worktop in 2 years!
Thanks,
John
