Standing shower meeting wall - gap (2023 Update)

Standing shower meeting wall - gap open original

the old contractor that did the work before i bought the house did this, not sure what i'm supposed to do..silicone it?

The tile is solid but at an angle away from the wall, and the standing shower doesn't look right where it meets the wall.

One possible solution to this issue would be to use a shower pan liner and a pre-formed shower base. This would create a smooth and even surface for the standing shower to sit on, and would prevent water from seeping through any gaps between the shower and the wall. Another option would be to install a waterproof membrane behind the tile, this will fill the gap between the tile and the wall, and will prevent water from seeping through. The last option is to remove the tile and re-install it ensuring it is level and flush against the wall.
